Grilled banana split

The pitch-black banana hides a delightful creamy and soft banana, whose sweetness pairs perfectly with the melted brown sugar, whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce, and whiskey.

Equipment

  • Deciliter Measure
  • Grill
  • Whisk
  • Chef'S Knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients

  • 4 pcs. Banana
  • 200 gram Whipping Cream
  • 48 gram Brown sugar
  • Whiskey to taste. Can be omitted
  • Vanilla Ice Cream
  • Caramel Sauce preferably salted caramel

Instructions

  • The grill should be very hot.
  • Place the bananas on the grill; they should remain in their peel.
  • When it is completely black, it should be turned over.
  • Whip cream from the whipping cream. I always whip by hand; it helps me avoid over-whipping and causing it to split. In general, you should remember that whipped cream continues to work after you stop whipping, so it's better to under-whip than to over-whip.
  • Remove the bananas from the grill; they are now ready to be served.
  • Cut a slit on the inner side of the banana from one end to the other.
  • Open it up without removing the banana.
  • Put an even layer of brown sugar on top of the warm banana so it melts.
  • Sprinkle it with a little whiskey/cognac or whatever you prefer. It can easily be omitted.
  • Add whipped cream, ice cream, and a bit of caramel sauce, and it's ready to serve.
  • Enjoy.
