Servings: 6 servings
Author: Barbara Schieving

Ingredients 

  • 6 baked puff pastry shells*
  • ¼ cup ½ stick butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 firm ripe bananas sliced
  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, water and vanilla stir until smooth.
  • Add the banana slices and stir to coat evenly. Allow to cook for 1 minute (don't overcook the banana.) Remove from heat.
  • Spoon ⅓ cup ice cream into each pastry shell. Spoon the caramelized bananas over the ice cream and pastry shells. Serve immediately.

Notes

*I used Pepperridge Farm Puff Pastry Shells, but you could make shells out of pastry sheets.
