Ingredients
- 4 whole Bananas
- 200 ml Guinness stout
- 250 ml Heavy cream
- 50 grams Brown sugar
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 handful Optional: Chopped roasted hazelnuts or whipped cream for garnish
Directions
Step 1
Peel the bananas and slice them lengthwise into halves. Set aside on a plate.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, pour in the Guinness and bring it to a gentle simmer. Allow it to reduce by half, approximately 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to avoid burning.
Step 3
Once the Guinness has reduced, lower the heat to medium-low and add the heavy cream, brown sugar, butter, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
Step 4
While the sauce is thickening, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a small knob of butter to the skillet and sauté the sliced bananas for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden and slightly caramelized. Remove from the heat.
Step 5
To assemble, spoon a generous amount of the Guinness cream sauce onto a serving plate. Place the caramelized banana halves on top of the sauce.
Step 6
If desired, garnish with whipped cream, a sprinkle of ground cinnamon, and chopped roasted hazelnuts for added crunch and flavor.
Step 7
Serve immediately, and enjoy this decadent fusion of sweet and malty goodness!
