I was watching the Food Network channel with my youngest daughter (she was watching Elmo on the I Pad) and they had a special All Star BBQ show on and my ole buddy Bobby Flay did this dish and I thought to myself. I have to try that, it looks good! It is also quick and easy, so I made it for desert the same night I did the gourmet pizza night.
Here is what you are going to need:
So I did this on the BGE (Big Green Egg). Brush the cut side of the bananas with oil. Grill on direct heat until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side.
After about 2 -3 minutes turn them. They should have nice brown grill marks.
Take the banana out of the peels and plate them. Put a large dollop of the creme fraiche maple syrup mixture in the center of each banana half. Garnish with a the berries and mint.
Then you take your bottle of syrup and very lightly drizzle over the top, very lightly.
It is light, and fresh and just perfect for those summer days.
Thank you Mr. Flay for this one.
They look beautiful!
We just had some bbq catered in here at work (no, of course it was not good) and I’m still hungry and wanting dessert and you hafta go and show me that? Oh….looks so good? What temp did you do the bananas at?
I had it hot from the pizza but I never shut the egg. I would think it was on hit coals at 450? Catered BBQ is always a let down isnt it?
