Baked Rum Bananas are a great way to use very ripe bananas without making banana bread. When you bake bananas the flavour intensifies and becomes sweet and sticky. Add a little rum and you have a Caribbean dessert that you are going to love.
Black Spotty Bananas
I usually make banana bread or Chocolate Oat banana Muffins with spotty over-ripe bananas. Sometimes I even hide some bananas just so I can bake with them.
Baked Rum Bananas
I had no time to bake so I thought the bananas would make a simple and delicious dessert. I found half a lime in the fridge and a small quantity of rum in the bottom of a miniature bottle.
How do I serve Baked Rum Bananas?
Serve with cream, ice cream, or Greek yogurt. Some baked banana recipes very sweet but the lime zest and juice really cut through the sweetness in this recipe. These Baked Rum Bananas are also a great topping for Slow Cooker Rice Pudding.

I've not taken part in this challenge before but I was quite literally told off by The Viking last night for leaving ancient veg in the fridge so I must repent! Xx
