Yum, 5 stars all day every day. These bananas are so good, I could have eaten them all by myself. Loved the flavor and texture of this tasty treat. I served some with vanilla cake and cool whip and the rest went over some French Vanilla Ice cream. Thanks for sharing this lovely recipe, that I will make again and again. Made for Alphabet Tag game - 2020. -
Oh yeah! Very good and so easy. I served this with ice cream. Made for ZWT9 Caribbean Dessert Challenge for the Soup-A-Stars -
Oh wow! This was really good! It is kind of like a spicy Banana Foster, but different. Lime is one of my favorite flavors and it was a great addition here. I had it with ice cream and a sprinkle of coconut. Made for ZWT9
