How to Make Go Nuts And Bananas

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread 1 cup of walnuts on a baking sheet and toast for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  2. Remove from oven and immediately stir in 2 tablespoons of brown sugar.
  3. Transfer the caramelized walnuts to a lightly greased dish to cool and break apart once cooled.
  4. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons of butter.
  5. Add the 3 sliced bananas to the melted butter and cook, stirring gently, for 3-5 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.
  6. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
  7. To serve, place the warm bananas in individual ice cream bowls or a serving dish.
  8. Gently fold in the cooled, broken caramelized walnuts.
  9. Sprinkle generously with 1/4 cup of chocolate chips and a dash of extra cinnamon.
  10. Serve immediately, topped with whipped cream if desired.
