Bananas Foster

Okay kiddo, so bananas foster is a really tasty dessert made with bananas, ice cream, and a sweet sauce.

To make it, first you take a frying pan and melt some butter and brown sugar together on the stove. Brown sugar is like white sugar, but it has a little bit of molasses in it which makes it taste richer and more caramel-y.

Once the butter and sugar are melted and bubbly, you add sliced bananas to the pan. These bananas will cook for just a few minutes until they're hot and coated in the sweet sauce.

Next, you add some rum to the pan. Rum is like a grown-up drink that's made from sugar and it has a strong flavor. When you pour it into the hot pan, it sizzles and smokes a little bit, which is pretty cool to watch. You might want to step back a little bit so you don't get splashed with hot sauce.

After the rum cooks for just a few seconds, you light it on fire! This is the really fun part. You use a lighter or a match to ignite the rum, and then it flames up and dances around the pan. This might look a little scary, but don't worry, it's all part of the plan. The flame burns off the alcohol in the rum and leaves behind a yummy caramel flavor.

Finally, you scoop some vanilla ice cream into a bowl and spoon the hot bananas and sauce over the top. The cold ice cream melts a little bit and mixes with the hot sauce, which tastes really amazing.

And that's it! Bananas foster is a delicious and fun dessert that you can make at home with some grown-up help.
