Ingredients
2 bananas, sliced lengthways in their skin
2 Tbsp brown sugar
¼ cup roasted peanuts
2 Tbsp maple syrup
Salted caramel ice cream
¼ cup caramel sauce
25g dark chocolate, melted
Sea salt, to finish
Method
Preheat oven to 220 degrees celsius. Lay the sliced bananas on a baking tray, cut side up, and sprinkle evenly with brown sugar.
Place under the grill for 3-5 minutes, or until caramelised. Remove from the oven and leave to set.
Set a pan over a medium heat, then slightly toast the peanuts. Add the maple, then caramelise for a couple of minutes or until the maple has reduced and become sticky. Sprinkle with salt and set aside.
Arrange the cooked bananas on a plate. Add the scooped ice cream, then spoon over the caramel sauce and drizzle with chocolate.
Sprinkle over the caramelised peanuts and finish with a pinch of sea salt.
