Ingredients
Don't store bananas in the refrigerator before making a banana split. And try to choose banans with some black spots.
- 4 x medium sized bananas
- 4 scoops soft-scoop vanilla ice cream
- 100g (3½ oz) toffee popcorn
- 2tbsp golden syrup or runny honey
Method
- Place the whole bananas on the barbecue or place on a baking tray in a preheated oven 190°C (375°F, gas mark 5) and bake for 8-10 mins until the bananas are black and softened.
- Put the ice cream in a bowl and gently stir in two-thirds of the popcorn.
- Split each banana down the middle in its skin and open out to expose the creamy flesh.
- Place on a serving plate and spoon the ice cream mixture into each split banana. Top each with a little extra popcorn and a drizzling of golden syrup or honey. Serve straight away.
