Grilled Bananas With Buttered Maple Sauce And English Almond Toffee

1. 1

   Clean your grill grate of any remnants of dinner. If the coals have died down, make sure you add a few and let them get going. You want good direct heat. It doesn't have to be blazing but if should be hot. You want the first 1/8 inch of the bananas to cook and caramelize, but not the whole banana.

2. 2

   Leaving the peels on your bananas, use a sharp knife to halve them lengthwise down the middle, from tip to tip.

3. 3

   Place the butter into a small sauce pan and place it on a hot spot on the grill. Let the butter melt. Lightly butter the cut side of the bananas and set them aside.

4. 4

   Add the syrup to the butter and let it come to a boil. Stir it around to combine and then move it to an area to simmer.

5. 5

   Grill the bananas. Once they are caramelized, turn them over and let the peel side cook for 30 seconds or so. This makes them easier to peel.

6. 6

   Peel the bananas gently, plate, sauce, and garnish.
