4 firm ripe bananas, sliced in half lengthwise
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 tablespoons lemon juice, about 1 lemon
1/2 cup banana liqueur
1/2 cup dark rum or good quality brandy
PREPARATION:
Melt butter in a heavy skillet; add the brown sugar and spices, stirring until the sugar is completely melted. Add the ripe bananas and cook until they are hot and well coated with syrup, but not mushy. References :
3/4 cup Light brown sugar (packed)
3/4 cup Kahlua or other coffee flavored liquor
12 tablespoons Unsalted butter; cut into tablespoons
6 Ripe bananas; peeled, and cut into 1/2" thick rounds
Ground cinnamon; to taste
Vanilla ice cream
Directions:
Build a charcoal fire in an outdoor grill and let burn until the coals are covered with white ash. Let the fire burn down to medium-hot (you should be able to hold your hand at grate level for 3 seconds).
In a gas grill, preheat to Medium. Tear off 12-inch squares of aluminum foil. Fold one foil square in half. On the bottom half, place 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Kahlua, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1 banana. Sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon. Fold the foil over to form a packet, crimping the open edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. The packets can be prepared up to 1 hour ahead and kept at room temperature.
Grill the packets until the sugar, Kahlua, and butter are boiling, 5 to 7 minutes. Open the packets, pour over bowls of ice cream and serve immediately.

Pick DRUID’S anser.
SHE is correct.
I also have the recipe and have had it in restaurants. There’s not much of a deviation on the recipe. It’s just as simple as that.
Kruish’s recipe is also good but it’s not the original. Try them both and see which one you like best.
