CARAMELIZED BANANAS WITH PECAN-COCONUT CRUNCH



Caramelized Bananas With Pecan-Coconut Crunch image

This cozy dessert comes together quickly and fills the kitchen with a sweet, buttery aroma. The textures play well together: The spiced caramel is silky but robust, the bananas tender, and the pecan-and-coconut topping crunchy and crisp. Pick ripe but firm bananas so they'll maintain their shape after cooking. (The bananas should be yellow with no black spots; green bananas won't work.) Broil them until sizzling, then allow the bubbling caramel to cool and thicken a bit before serving. Devoured directly out of the skillet, or spooned into individual servings, these caramelized bananas are a lovely way to end a meal. Top with a scoop of ice cream for a cool contrast to the warm dessert.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 tablespoons/55 grams unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup/50 grams shelled pecans, chopped
1/4 cup/35 grams raw pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup/20 grams rolled oats
1/4 cup/20 grams large coconut chips or flakes
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, flax seeds, chia seeds or any other small seed
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons/85 grams dark brown sugar
1/4 cup/60 milliliters heavy cream
Pinch of nutmeg
Pinch of black pepper
4 to 5 ripe but firm bananas (about 1 3/4 pounds/795 grams), peeled and halved lengthwise
Ice cream, whipped cream or crème fraîche, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the crunchy topping: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium until melted and foamy, about 3 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon honey and the salt; using a spatula, stir to combine. Add the pecans, pumpkin seeds, oats and coconut and stir to coat. Toast, stirring frequently, until the mixture is golden brown, about 8 minutes, lowering the heat as necessary to keep the mixture from burning. Stir in the sesame seeds and remove from heat. Move to a shallow bowl and set aside to cool. (You should have about 1 1/2 cups.)
  • Prepare the bananas: Set the oven to broil. Wipe out the skillet and add the brown sugar, heavy cream, nutmeg, pepper, remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon honey. Stir ingredients and bring to a simmer over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes.
  • Remove the skillet from the heat and place the bananas in the pan, cut-side up. Spoon some of the sauce over the top to coat the slices. Move the pan to the oven and broil until the caramel sauce is hot and bubbly and the bananas are tender, deep golden and slightly charred in spots, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to sit for at least 5 minutes.
  • Spoon a large helping of the ice cream, whipped cream or crème fraîche over the warm bananas, then scatter the pecan-coconut crunch over the top. Divide among individual plates or eat directly from the skillet.

CARAMELIZED PECANS



Caramelized Pecans image

Pecans are my favorite and especially when they are caramelized. This recipe is so easy and fast and you can store them in the freezer until you are ready to use them already caramelized. Please follow the recipe and the pictures and you will have beautiful, delicious, caramelized pecans.

Categories     Nuts

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 oz bag of pecan halves oven roasted
2 Tbsp butter
1/2 c brown sugar
2 dash(es) water

Steps:

  • 1. Roast Pecans in oven 10-15 min in oven. *Note: They are roasted properly when they don't taste bitter in the middle and have a snappy crunch to them. Set aside
  • 2. In a large nonstick skillet melt butter on medium heat then add brown sugar and mix into a paste. Hold the skillet under the faucet and give it a dash of water with the sink handle. Return to the burner and stir mixing the paste and water while it is bubbling and dissolving the brown sugar. When the water evaporates give it another dash of water to incorporate it into a syrup and let it bubble and boil for a few until it starts to thicken (carmelize). *Note: Make sure the brown sugar is no longer grainy and has melted into a syrup, and the syrup has started to thicken and hold together and is not runny.
  • 3. Quickly add the roasted pecans and fold them into the caramelized mixture then quickly empty them onto a tray separated from one another. Let them cool without moving them. *Note This stage has to be done quickly and you must not stir them to much or disturb the carmel coating or it will lose it's shiny sheen and become dull and brittle.
  • 4. When they are cool remove from the tray and serve over vanilla ice cream or just as a treat.
