Yum! I had this over ice cream tonight, but I'll try to heat the leftovers up tomorrow for breakfast over oatmeal. Loved this! I agree that this would be a wonderful topping for French Toast. Thanks for sharing your wonderful recipe! -
Mmm desert for breakfast. This recipe really can pull double duty as a desert or for breakfast as a topping to French toast. Made as written cutting down to serve one and served over mine and DH's oatmeal this morning. We both loved this and both of us thought would be really good on French toast. Thanks so much for the post. -

I made this recipe for the Caribbean Dessert Challenge for ZWT5..I really enjoyed the addition of raisins; sered it on vanillla ice cream. Thank you for posting. My second time trying to review. Rita -
DD (toddler) loved it especially the rasins. I found it wasnt anything special and with all the sugar, not healthy enough to make for DD again. I thought a rum flavour would be great so I used pineapple juice thinned with molasses as a substitute for rum in place of the water since we dont do any alcohol. I used bottled lemon juice, I'm sure fresh would be better. For the butter I had to substitute canola oil as we are dairy free. We are also corn free so I used tapioca starch instead of cornstarch which if using, use a lot less. Photo posted. This is not something I would make again. Made for ZWT5 for Cooks With Dirty Faces.

These were delicious bananas. Instead of water, I decided I'd really hit the islands with this recipe and substituted dark rum. The resulting sauce was a delightful rum-raisin concoction that so suited the bananas. Sprinkled the top with a blend of allspice/cinnamon/nutmeg and this was a great topping for vanilla ice cream.

MMMmmmm! This is so easy and so good! I served it with plain yogurt which cut some of the sweetness, but it didn't need it! I think next time I will use brown sugar substitute to reduce the calories since I managed to eat 2 servings myself! I used margarine instead of butter and it still tasted great. This is a treat your whole family will love.
