2 tablespoons granulated sugar Helps create that delicious caramel-like texture.
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon Essential for that warm, comforting flavor profile.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract Adds a lovely depth of flavor to the sauce.
¼ cup dark rum Provide a nice kick and depth if you're feeling adventurous!

1 scoop vanilla ice cream Optional indulgence that pairs beautifully with the warm bananas.

Start by peeling the four ripe bananas, ensuring they are soft and sweet for the best flavor.
Slice each banana in half lengthwise to create charming, elongated pieces. Set aside.
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat.
Once melted, sprinkle in 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and stir until dissolved.
Add 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, followed by 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
If using, pour in ¼ cup of dark rum and let it simmer for a minute.
Carefully place the banana halves into the skillet, cut side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Gently flip them and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side.
Remove the bananas from the skillet and let them cool for about a minute.
Serve the fried bananas with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, drizzling warm cinnamon butter sauce over the top.
