Grilled Banana Parfait with Rum Sauce Recipe
You all know I love to make desserts on the grill! Bananas + ice cream + rum sauce = an insanely good dessert that you won’t event feel guilty about later! You will be proud you licked the bowl clean and will consider a second helping!
Ingredients
- 4 ripe bananas, sliced lengthwise with peel on
- 10 large strawberries, thinly sliced (optional)
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp brown sugar- for bananas
- 1 â 1 1/2 cup mini vanilla wafers
- 1 pint vanilla ice cream or gelato (for larger portions, go with more ice cream)
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ½ tblsp butter
- ¼ cup rum
Directions
- Split the bananas lengthwise with the peels on.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar.
- Grill on direct heat until char marks form on both sides. While grilling the bananas, put the butter, remaining brown sugar and rum in a grill friendly pot or small aluminum pan.
- Put the pot on indirect heat (not above the coals) and let the butter, rum and sugar mixture come to a slow boil and begin to caramelize (this will only take a few minutes). You can also make the rum mixture on the stove.
- Remove the bananas and rum sauce from the grill. Remove the bananas from their peel and slice.
- In a wine or martini glass, layer ice cream, vanilla wafers, banana, and strawberries until filled to a little under the top of the glass.
- Pour rum sauce over top. The bananas combined with the vanilla wafers, strawberries and rum sauce make the perfect, crunchy bite. And who doesnât love a little rum with their dessert?
