Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in 1 cup of brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, cooking until the mixture thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Add the sliced ripe bananas and cook for another 2 minutes until caramelized.
  3. Carefully ignite ¼ cup of dark rum and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract in the skillet with the banana mixture to flambé. Extinguish the flames after about 30 seconds.
  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and ½ cup of granulated sugar. Add ¾ cup of milk, the beaten egg, and 4 tablespoons of melted butter. Stir until smooth.
  5. Pour the caramelized banana mixture into the bottom of a baking dish and spread the batter over the top, covering completely.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and springs back when pressed. Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
