Cinnamon-Spiced Bananas with Crunchy Nuts

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was my second banana/ice cream recipe while "travelling" through Africa on the ZWT4 tour. I hesitated to make this because of the orange juice so I decided to use some of the coconut milk left from another recipe and I think it was a great idea. I left the flaked coconut off and used coconut rum! Served with vanilla bean ice cream and it was delicious! My daughter even loved it and she doesn't like coconut (she couldn't see it so she loved it!). Oh! like almost ALL the African recipes I've made I added a touch of cardamom in addition to the nutmeg and cinnamon!

My daughter even loved it and she doesn’t like coconut (she couldn’t see it so she loved it!). Oh! like almost ALL the African recipes I’ve made I added a touch of cardamom in addition to the nutmeg and cinnamon!,this is so easy to make in the micro, and is a great topping for ice cream. i did use dark rum and the freshly grated nutmeg, they gave this dish great flavor. made for zwt4.
