Description

This decadent dessert, with its rich, buttery sauce drizzled on toasted brioche, takes only minutes to prepare but will easily impress family and friends.

Method

Step 1 of 5

In a large, heavy-based frying pan, dry-fry the pecans over a medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown in places. Remove from the heat and set aside. Wipe the pan clean.

Step 2 of 5

Heat the butter, sugar, and the orange juice and zest (reserving a little zest for garnishing) over a medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the sauce reduces slightly and begins to look glossy.

Step 3 of 5

Add the bananas to the pan and cook for a further 2-3 minutes over a high heat, until the sauce reduces further. Meanwhile, toast the brioche. If desired, cut the bread into 7cm rounds.

Step 4 of 5

When the bananas are just tender, add the pecans and the rum and cook for 1 minute to heat it up, then use a match to carefully light the alcohol. The pan will flare up, so be careful, but the flames should die away within 1 minute.

Step 5 of 5

Top each brioche round with a scoop of ice cream, pour over a quarter of the caramelized bananas, and garnish with the reserved orange zest. Serve immediately.
