Grilled Banana Dessert
Grill, Cast Iron, Dinner, Side dish, Drinks, check, check ,check … whoops!
There is always a component or two that is forgotten at the time of execution or more simply put, I forgot to make dessert and was reminded of it half way through eating dinner. The boys never miss this detail and quickly make a, suggestion :-).
Ever the clutch player, I simply stated “No worries” and proceeded to grill up some dessert. Grilled dessert is with out a doubt one of the most visually pleasing sight to behold, akin to a beautiful sunset, a crystal clear lake, ah … well a poet I am not, but it sure is fun to watch. My attempt was to say the least was fantastic! Of course I quite often say that as positive re-enforcement is necessary to my fragile grilling ego. I literally threw this together!
I threw in some butter!
I threw in some Brown sugar!
I threw in some Honey!
I threw in some Cinnamon!
I threw in some Bananas!
Sounds like a Winnie the Pooh story …
But that's all there was to it and it was the best dessert I have thrown together in along time! Ok, a couple of weeks to be sure …
I did slice the bananas and everything was measured by the handful, oh, the butter was half a stick. I know not very precise but why? I had my Cast Iron skillet to cook it all on the grill and it was a toss and cook dessert. The bananas took all of three or four minutes to get heated and coated, you can cook them till there mush if you want.
All of this was poured over some Vanilla Ice Cream and served Outdoors on a beautiful evening. Oh so good!
