Ingredients
- 4 ripe bananas, sliced
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup dark rum (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing the baking dish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter.
- In a medium bowl, combine sliced bananas, melted butter, brown sugar, rum (if using), vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Stir to coat the bananas in the caramel sauce and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.
- Add milk, egg, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the banana mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
- Spoon the cobbler batter over the bananas and spread gently to cover.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the cobbler topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm, topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
- Add toasted pecans or walnuts on top for extra crunch.
- Swap dark rum for spiced rum to add warmth to the dessert.
- For a non-alcoholic version, omit the rum and add extra milk or fruit juice.
