Butterscotch Banana Splits Recipes

BANANA BUTTERSCOTCH BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 9x5-inch loaf pans. Set aside. Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Beat in the egg, then stir in the mashed bananas. Pour in the flour mixture, mixing until just incorporated. Fold in the butterscotch chips and walnuts; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 28 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

TINY BANANA SPLITS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment. Put the chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl, and microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until smooth. Transfer the melted chocolate to a mug.
• Put the walnuts in another small bowl. Peel the bananas, trim the ends and cut each into six 2-inch pieces. Dip each piece halfway into the chocolate, and let any excess drip off. Roll the chocolate-dipped ends in walnuts, then set them on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate to set the chocolate. (The bananas can be refrigerated up to 2 hours.)
• Whip the cream in a small bowl until soft peaks form. Add the preserves, and stir to incorporate. Transfer the mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe a star-shaped dollop on top of each banana. Garnish with a piece of cherry and sprinkles.

CHOCOLATE AND BUTTERSCOTCH FROZEN BANANAS

Steps:

• Insert ice-pop sticks into the cut end of the bananas, halfway up. Place on a baking sheet and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours.
• Melt the chocolate in a double boiler, about 5 minutes.
• Line a large baking sheet with wax paper and set aside. Dip the frozen bananas in the butterscotch and then sprinkle with candied nuts or sprinkles. Place on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with melted chocolate. Place back in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to set.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the brown sugar and salt. Cook, whisking continuously, until the sugar dissolves and caramelizes, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, carefully pour in the heavy cream, and then return to heat. Continue to cook until the mixture is smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the egg white until frothy. Fold in the brown sugar and salt, and then the peanuts, pecans and walnuts. Spread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until toasted and the sugar has melted, about 10 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, then roughly chop.

CAMPFIRE BANANA SPLITS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill for high heat.
• Spray 4 sheets of aluminum foil, large enough to wrap bananas, with cooking spray.
• Slice the peel of the banana from stem to bottom, while slicing the banana inside lengthwise. The bananas can be cut into slices instead if you like, (while still in the peel) for easier handling later.
• Carefully open the banana just wide enough to place the chocolate chips and marshmallows inside the peel with the banana. Stuff with as much of the chocolate chips and marshmallows as desired.
• Wrap the bananas with the aluminum foil and place on the grill or directly in the coals of a fire. Leave in long enough to melt the chips and the marshmallows, about 5 minutes. Unwrap bananas, open the peels wide, and eat with a spoon.

Steps:

• Make butterscotch sauce: In a small saucepan, combine 1/3 cup cream, butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup.

Sauce can also be made up to 1 week ahead; cover and refrigerate in an airtight container.
• If sauce is refrigerated, place in microwave, before serving, for 30 seconds; stir. If still too thick, microwave for 15 seconds more, and stir again.
• Whip the cream: In a large bowl, whisk remaining 2/3 cup cream and granulated sugar until soft peaks form.
• Assemble: In each of eight shallow dishes, arrange 2 banana halves lengthwise. Place 2 scoops ice cream on bananas. Top with butterscotch sauce, whipped cream, and, if desired, peanuts and a cherry.
