Ingredients
- 2 cups to 3 prepared chia seed pudding
Bananas Foster:
- 2 large ripe bananas
- 3 tablespoons to 4 unsalted butter
- 1-½ tablespoons spiced rum syrup see recipe below
Spiced Rum Maple Syrup
- 2/3 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/3 cup dark rum
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt or to taste
Instructions
-
Prepare the chia seed pudding in advance so that it has time to set up over night.
-
Prepare the Spiced Rum Maple Syrup:
-
Add all of the ingredients for the spiced rum maple syrup to a small skillet. Bring to a full boil, then reduce the heat slightly and allow the mixture to simmer, stirring occasionally, until alcohol has cooked off, and syrup is thick, about 2 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside until ready to use.
Prepare the Bananas Foster:
-
Heat the butter in a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Slice the bananas in ¾-inch rounds, and place them on the hot skillet. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, until bananas have begun to soften and are turning brown. Add the spiced rum syrup, flip the bananas carefully (they will be delicate!), and cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until bananas are very soft and caramelized.
Bring it All Together:
-
Serve heaping bowls of chia seed pudding with caramelized bananas, walnuts, and a drizzle of spiced rum syrup. Save any remaining syrup for your next pancake conquest!
