Recipe Ingredients

6 cups 1422mlBananas (small)
3 tablespoons 45mlDark rum
1 1/2 teaspoons 7.5mlCoconut extract
1 tablespoon 15mlBrown sugar

Recipe Instructions

Make a small slit into the skin of each banana. Cut through 1/4 inch of each banana and drizzle in some of the rum, extract, and sugar. Close up the skin with a toothpick. Prepare an outside grill with an oiled rack set 6 inches above the heat source. On a gas grill, set the heat to medium.

Grill the bananas in their skins for about 30 to 35 minutes until the skins are blackened and the bananas are hot. Slit each banana and push the ends in to fluff up. Eat like a baked potato, directly from the skin.

This recipe yields 6 servings. Serving size: 1 small banana.
