Peg's Gourmet Skillet Banana Dessert
camping recipe
Category: Desserts   Rating: 10
Backpacking: No Effort: average Serves: 1-2 Prep time: 1-30m
 
Ingredients:
  • 4 bananas
  • 1/4 c dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 stick butter (no margarine or oil!!!)
  • pinch salt
  • pinch apple pie spice, cinnamon or grated nutmeg
  • large splash(1/8 - 1/4 c) of spiced (Captain Morgan's)rum, or any kind of rum will do
 
How to Prepare:
Peel bananas and cut into halves or break into big chunks. Melt butter in skillet over hot coals or camp stove on high flame. Add brown sugar and stir, allowing sugar to start to caramalize (look like it's turning into melted caramel). Add bananas, salt and spices. Fry, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add the rum and stir, then remove from heat. If you want to be really impressive, allow the flame to lap into your pan, igniting the rum. It will burn itself out soon (unless you add a ton of rum, in which case just cover with a pan lid and it will burn out instantly). Serve hot. Don't ignite your hair, especially if you sampled some of that rum prior to cooking. Good by itself or over cake or ice cream.

CAMPING TIP

Don't like huge numbers of moths, mayflies, etc around your lantern at night? Hang that bright fuel lantern 30 feet or more to the side of your site, then use a softer light battery lantern in the human zone. You'll still benefit some from the big lantern, and the battery one will suffice in any case, but all the night bugs will be drawn to the brighter light, leaving you more than relatively bug-free.
