Hot baked banana parcels

Hot baked banana parcels are a delicious and indulgent dessert that can be easily made at home. This recipe combines the sweetness of bananas with the warmth of brown sugar, the richness of rum, a hint of cinnamon, and the crunch of almonds. Perfect for a cozy night in or to impress guests at a dinner party

Ingredients:

1/4 cup butter
54g
1/3 cup brown sugar
72g
1/3 cup rum
72g
1 tsp cinnamon
3g
3 bananas
360g
1/3 cup almonds
40g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Butter Mixture:
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the brown sugar, rum, and cinnamon. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Slice the Bananas:
Peel the bananas and cut them into halves lengthwise.
4. Crush the Almonds:
Coarsely chop or crush the almonds. You can place them in a ziplock bag and use a rolling pin to crush them lightly.
5. Assemble the Parcels:
- Take a piece of aluminum foil or parchment paper large enough to wrap one banana half.
- Place one banana half on the foil.
- Spoon a generous amount of the butter mixture over the banana.
- Sprinkle some crushed almonds on top.
6. Seal the Parcels:
Fold the foil or parchment paper over the banana to create a sealed parcel, making sure it is sealed tightly to prevent any leakage.
7. Bake:
Place the parcels onto a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the bananas are tender and the sauce is bubbly.
8. Serve:
Carefully open the parcels (be cautious of the steam) and transfer the bananas to serving plates. Drizzle any remaining sauce from the parcels over the bananas.
9. Optional Garnish:
For added flavor and presentation, you can garnish with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
10. Enjoy:
Serve immediately while hot for the best taste experience!

Tips:

- Make sure the bananas are ripe but not too mushy for the best texture.

- Consider using dark rum for a richer flavor, but feel free to use light rum if preferred.

- Toast the almonds lightly before using to enhance their flavor and crunch.

- If you prefer a non-alcoholic version, substitute the rum with an equal amount of apple juice or water.

- Serve the parcels hot with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.

Hot baked banana parcels are a delightful and easy-to-make dessert that packs a punch of flavor with its combination of sweet, spicy, and nutty elements. By following these tips and steps, you'll be on your way to creating a memorable treat that everyone will enjoy.
