Pan Seared Cinnamon Bananas Over Vanilla Ice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• If you're using the vanilla bean, split it and scrape the inside. Put the vanilla bean and scrapings (or extract) in a saucepan, with milk and 1/2 cup of sugar.
• Cover saucepan and bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat. Let stand 5 minutes. Remove the vanilla bean. Beat 6 egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar until pale and able to form a ribbon. Slowly beat the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture.
• Place the mixture over low to medium heat and stirring constantly, bring to 183 to 187 degrees F, until thick and evenly and thickly coats the back of a spoon. Immediately remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Stir in the cinnamon.
• Freeze ice cream in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Remove to a sealable container. Keep in the freezer.

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the half-and-half, cream, vanilla, cinnamon stick and ground cinnamon, whisking occasionally to make sure the mixture doesn?t burn or stick to the bottom of the pan. When the cream mixture reaches a fast simmer (do not let it boil), turn off the heat and let the flavors infuse for 10 minutes.
• Whisk together the egg yolks and the sugar. In a thin stream, whisk half of the cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Then pour the egg-cream mixture back into the saucepan containing the rest of the cream mixture. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. At 160 degrees, the mixture will give off a puff of steam. When the mixture reaches 180 degrees it will be thickened and creamy, like eggnog. If you don?t have a thermometer, test it by dipping a wooden spoon into the mixture. Run your finger down the back of the spoon. If the stripe remains clear, the mixture is ready; if the edges blur, the mixture is not quite thick enough yet. When it is ready, quickly remove it from the heat.
• Meanwhile, in a bowl, put two handfuls of ice cubes in the bottom, and add cold water to cover. Rest a smaller bowl in the ice water. Pour the cream mixture through a fine sieve or chinois (to remove the vanilla bean pieces and cinnamon sticks) and into the smaller bowl. Chill 3 hours, then continue according to the directions of your ice cream maker.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Arrange banana halves in shallow pan, cut side up. Sprinkle rum evenly over bananas and shake cinnamon on top. Broil 4-inch from flame until softened and beginning to brown. Place two banana halves in each of four bowls. Place a scoop of vanilla ice cream top and serve, topped with chocolate curls.

Steps:

• Cut each banana into 6 chunks and freeze until rock solid, preferably overnight.
• Put the banana chunks and vanilla bean seeds or extract in a food processor and process. Hang on, your food processor may jolt in the very beginning! The bananas will look crumbly at first, then gooey and eventually light and creamy- just like ice cream. Stop the food processor frequently to scrape down the sides of the bowl and break up any clumps. Serve right away or scrape into a container and freeze until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a large frying pan melt butter over medium-high heat. When butter has melted, add bananas and saute 1 minute. Add brown sugar, cinnamon, and rum. Stir to combine. Let simmer 3 to 4 minutes. Serve bananas over ice cream with cookie on the side.

Steps:

• Peel the bananas, cut them in 2- to 3-inch chunks and place them in a freezer bag in the freezer for at least 6 hours. Remove and blend in a blender until smooth. Serve immediately, or freeze in an airtight container for at least 2 hours. Scoop and serve.
