How to Make Spiced Nutty Bananas
- Slice 2 ripe bananas into 1/2-inch thick rounds and place them in a microwave-safe dish.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup cashew nuts, 1/4 cup peanuts (chopped), 2 tablespoons shredded coconut, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Pour 2 tablespoons orange juice and 1 tablespoon rum (optional) over the sliced bananas. Sprinkle evenly with the nut and sugar mixture.
- Dot the top with 1 tablespoon of butter or margarine.
- Microwave on high for 4 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and bananas are softened. If needed, microwave in 1-minute intervals until desired tenderness is reached.
- Spoon the Spiced Nutty Bananas into a serving bowl. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
- Garnish with freshly grated nutmeg for an aromatic finish.
- For an extra kick, add more rum to taste.
- Feel free to substitute chopped mixed nuts for peanuts, using 1/2 cup total.
