Bananas for Grilled Bananas
What is an unexpected item that is delicious when grilled – something that people would not think of?
Bananas! I am bananas for grilled bananas! Leave the banana in the peel, slice the banana lengthwise and sprinkle with a little dessert rub (cinnamon, granulated sugar and a pinch of salt) on the cut side of the banana. Grill the banana over medium-low direct heat, skin-side down until the skin peels away from the flesh. That’s when you know that it is done. You can also turn the bananas once for a minute or so to get grill marks on the cut side. Serve with ice cream and bourbon for a bananas foster-like treat or home-made chocolate sauce for a grilled banana split sundae.
