Ingredients

  • Butter, softened

  • 4 medium ripe but firm bananas, halved lengthwise, then cut in half crosswise

  • ½ cup crushed gingersnap cookies (2 ounces)

  • 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon plus 1/4 cup packed brown sugar

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 5 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened

  • 2 tablespoon dark rum or apple cider or juice

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla

  • Vanilla ice cream

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter four 10-oz. shallow ramekins and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Divide bananas among ramekins.

  2. In a small bowl combine crushed cookies, flour, 1 Tbsp. brown sugar, and 1/4 tsp. salt. Add 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter; stir together until crumbly.

  3. In a small saucepan melt remaining 3 Tbsp. unsalted butter over medium. Stir in remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Boil gently 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Carefully whisk in rum, vanilla, and an additional 1/4 tsp. salt; mixture will foam up. Return to boiling. Boil gently 1 minute more, stirring constantly. Spoon hot syrup over bananas. Sprinkle cookie mixture over each.

  4. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until bubbly and browned. Let cool 15 minutes. Serve crisps warm with ice cream. Makes 4.
