Peel and slice the bananas on the diagonal ( in order to increase the surface area which means more caramelized goodness).", "In a 10-inch cast iron skillet (or other stovetop and oven safe pan) over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and add half the sliced bananas. Spread them out in a single layer as much as possible and let sit undisturbed for 2 minutes. Stir them a bit and try to get any un-browned sides facing down and let sit for 2 minutes more. Remove to a separate dish and repeat this process with the rest of the butter and bananas.", "After the second batch of bananas is done, add back the first batch along with brown sugar and vanilla. Stir well, but carefully (try not to smoosh the bananas too much) to combine and let sit over medium heat for one minute more.", "Add the crumble topping over the top. Put the whole pan in the oven for about 5-10 minutes, or until the topping has crisped up and the filling is bubbly. Let it cool slightly before serving.
