Ingredients for Bananas With Caramel Sauce And Whipped Cream

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • Butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional)

How to Make Bananas With Caramel Sauce And Whipped Cream

  1. Peel the bananas and slice them lengthwise into halves or thirds, depending on their size.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, butter, brown sugar, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the butter and sugar are melted and the mixture is smooth.
  3. Bring the mixture to a simmer, continue stirring constantly, until it thickens to a caramel consistency (about 3-5 minutes).
  4. Remove from heat and let the caramel sauce cool slightly.
  5. Arrange the banana slices on individual plates or in a serving bowl.
  6. Drizzle the warm caramel sauce generously over the bananas.
  7. Top with a dollop of whipped cream.
  8. Garnish with a sprinkle of sea salt (optional), for an extra touch of flavor.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
