How to Make Banana Flambe Over Ice Cream
- In a bowl, combine sliced bananas, brown sugar, Grand Marnier, and lemon juice. Marinate for 15 minutes.
- In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add granulated sugar and cook, stirring constantly, until it turns a rich golden brown caramel.
- Carefully pour in the orange juice, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Add the marinated banana mixture to the saucepan. Stir gently to combine.
- Stir in lemon zest and cook for 1 minute.
- (Optional) Carefully add banana rum and immediately ignite with a long match or lighter. Allow the flames to die down.
- Cook for 1 minute on high heat, stirring occasionally.
- Serve immediately over scoops of vanilla ice cream.
- Top with whipped cream, chopped nuts, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and an orange slice for garnish.
