Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon brown sugar
¼ cup orange juice
1 large banana, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1 tablespoon rum
1 cup vanilla ice cream

Directions

Melt butter and brown sugar together in a skillet over medium heat until caramelized, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in orange juice; mix well for 2 minutes. Stir in banana slices until evenly coated with orange juice mixture.
Pour rum into the skillet. Light rum carefully using a long match. Shake skillet back and forth until flames die down, about 30 seconds. Cook for 1 minute more.
Divide vanilla ice cream between 2 bowls. Spoon banana mixture over ice cream.

Editor's Note:

Use caution when igniting the run in step 2. Use a long match such as a fireplace match or long barbeque lighter. Ignite the fumes at the edge of the pan, not the liquid itself. Do not lean over the skillet as you ignite the fumes.
