Get the Recipe: Bananas Foster Parfaits
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons dark brown sugar, tightly packed
- 2 tablespoons rye whiskey
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- pinch of salt
- 2 large bananas, ripe
- 6 ounces (2 containers) Mediterranean vanilla yogurt (like Liberté’s Mediterranean French Vanilla yogurt)
Instructions
- In a medium saute pan, combine 6 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons rye whiskey, 1 tablespoon unsalted butter and a pinch of salt. Over low heat, cook to melt sugar, using a heatproof rubber spatula to stir constantly. Continue simmering the mixture until it is thick and syrupy.
- Peel 2 large bananas and cut each into quarters; then, cut each quarter lengthwise for a total of 16 pieces. Add the bananas to the pan (from the 1st step) and cook until just soft.
- Remove pan from heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature completely.
- Once the mixture has cooled completely and you’re ready to serve the parfaits, divide 6 ounces of yogurt evenly between 4 ramekins. Top the yogurt with 2 banana pieces per ramekin.
- Spoon the remaining yogurt over the bananas, then add 2 more banana pieces to each ramekin as well as some of the pan syrup. Serve immediately.
