Equipment

  • 1 Ice Cream Machine

Ingredients

For the bananas foster

  • 2 bananas diced to ½ inch pieces
  • ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
  • ¼ cup of brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon rum extract
  • 3 tablespoons of butter

For the ice cream

  • 2 cups of heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup of half and half
  • ¾ cup of sugar
  • teaspoon of fine sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla
  • 6 egg yolks beaten

Instructions

For the bananas foster

  • Add bananas, cinnamon, brown sugar, rum extract, and butter to a saute pan over medium heat.
  • While stirring, cook until butter and brown sugar are melted, and the bananas are soft.
  • Let bananas foster mixture cool and then blend until smooth in a food processor.

For the ice cream

  • In a medium saute pan combine sugar, whipping cream, half and half, and salt.
  • Over medium heat whisk the milk mixture until the sugar dissolves and is hot to the touch. Around 160 degrees.
  • Whisking as you are pouring, pour about ⅓ of the milk mixture into a separate bowl with the beaten egg yolks. This is tempering the egg mixture.
  • Then pour tempered egg mixture back into the pan with the milk mixture and continue whisking.
  • Whisk mixture over medium heat until it is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon.
  • Strain custard through a sieve to get the lumps out.
  • Mix vanilla into the sieved custard and let cool.
  • Once cooled, combine the bananas foster with the ice cream custard.
  • Then place a piece of plastic wrap onto the surface of the custard to avoid a “skin” forming.
  • Place in the fridge and cool overnight or for at least 3 hours. Then follow the directions provided by your ice cream maker manufacturer.
