Bananas Martinique

1. 1

   Peel bananas or plantains, cut in half crosswise and then cut halves in half lengthwise. Saute over medium high heat until outsides begin to caramelize. Remove and arrange in 9 x 9 baking dish.

2. 2

   In blender, put seeded orange sections, cream cheese, spices and sugar. Add some orange zest if you like, or save it to garnish the top. Blend until smooth.

3. 3

   Pour sauce over bananas. Garnish, with desired, banana chips, dried pineapple, toasted coconut, or orange zest. Or whatever else strikes your fancy. I have used drained maraschino cherries.

4. 4

   Bake in 350F oven for 20 minutes, just until slightly browned on top. Serve warm, over ice cream, pound cake, or topped with creme fraiche.
