Something to keep in mind when lighting the alcohol on fire is to not do it under the kitchen hood ^-^ even if it's not on flames still travel upwards and usually there's bunch of fat that sort of gunked in. That catches easily on fire and it's extremely hard to put out alone. Safe burning everyone
I’ve always sliced the bananas into thicker coin size pieces, then I pour the sauce over the ice cream while it’s on fire. The ice cream, sauce, and fire almost crystallizes the sauce, and the texture is amazing! Add in the show of pouring the burning sauce over the ice cream, and it’s like you say, “ahhhhhhmazing”!! Also I love that you use Haagen Daas ice cream because I’ve tried other brands of vanilla, and it never tastes as good as with Haagen Daas!!
There is/was a restaurant in Edmonton, Alberta called Da-de-o’s, this dessert was a signature dish there. They made it at the table, so impressive. Now I get why, their menu had lots of po’boy sandwiches too.
I love Bananas Foster too! Had it for the first time at a great little French restaurant in West Lake, Ca. on Valentines. Our waiter made it at the table as well, I watched him make it, and made it at home a few days later. My recipe is a bit different but bet they are both awesome. Last time I made it, it was for about 12 people, so we scooped the ice cream into balls prior to dinner which worked out well. Makes me long for a huge dish of Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla smothered in Bananas Foster. If there are leftovers, it’s wonderful over pancakes.
I had the opportunity to see it made at the table at a country club, “Secretary’s” day”! lol it was awesome, they also torched the crème brûlée, first time I ever ate that, fell in love instantly…
When I was a kid, this was my favorite dessert. There was a high-end ice cream parlor in a fancy shopping mall in our city, and on special occasions like birthdays we’d go there. The flaming bananas were fun but it was the flavor that I loved. When I was in my 20s I tried to make this but it just wasn’t the same as what I remembered from childhood. 30 years later I can make a passable bananas foster but it remains one of those dishes that I like better when it’s prepared by someone else. I’ll have to give this version a try!
@@penguiscool2334 to be honest, it wasn’t quite up to my expectations, but it’s been so long that I don’t remember exactly why. I just remember that I probably wouldn’t make it again.
I came here to comment solely on that. I must’ve laughter for a solid minute; it was so hilarious. Haven’t laughed that long and hard in quite some time.
Thanks so much for making this video! I had Bananas Foster at Brennan's a few years ago, and your video reminded me of eating this delish dessert. I will have to make this!
I clicked so fast😂 this looks so delicious. I've definitely gotta try this one out 🤤 Right now I'm literally taking your cinnamon rolls out my oven. Thanks for sharing all your amazing recipes with us🤗 xoxo love from Trinidad
Love your old school recipes! I'll bet you have a Cherries Flambe card hanging out in the recipe box. For this one I skip the cinnamon in the sauce and make candied pecans with cinnamon. A blast of whipped cream and toasted coconut tops my version. ✌ 😃
Hi Jon. Thanks for showing the real deal, mistakes and all. That is one of my favorite things about watching you cook. Stuff happens and you just roll with it. Love your videos.
I just made his pineapple upside down cake the other day and gave some to my neighbors and I finished it up in 2 days all by myself and it was absolutely delicious
Love, love ,love bananas foster. So easy to make and impresses your guests oh who am I kidding, I'm the guest. Lol. I've actually put this on top of pancakes, so yum. Time to make again. Looking forward to a cherries flambe recipe from you
I had bananas foster cheesecake with ice cream at Red Lobster years ago. I don't believe they have it anymore, but it was mind-blowing. It would be awesome if you made one!
I tried this recipe and it’s delicious! The first time it was nasty because I used the recommended 80ml of rum; but as someone who doesn’t drink alcohol I decided to use only like 30 ml of rum.
I made this a few days ago and my kids thought it was the fanciest thing they've ever had. It was easy. Thank you so much for this recipe. I felt like a rockstar and it was delicious!!
Recipe was really good! I had some spotty bananas and don’t really like banana bread so this was a good alternative! Since my bananas were softer I cooked them for a shorter amount of time and my rum didn’t burn so I just mixed it in. An adults only take on the recipe. 😅
I’m so making this John, looks absolutely delicious! I noticed your Zeroll ice cream scoop has oxidized, did you put it in the dishwasher? I only noticed because my husband did this recently to ours. I thought I would need a new one but I found an amazing solution as a desperate last act! It required quite a bit of elbow grease but an S.O.S (steel wool soap pad) brought mine back to brand new condition!
If your ice cream is too hard just put it in the microwave for ten seconds or so. A nice addition to this dessert is adding banana liquor, rum extract and toasted pecans. I find it much easier to make this dessert by cutting the banana into smaller pieces, also easier to eat and the sauce covers the banana better.
Ha John! You said "don't be rough with your banana" Important safety tip 🤣 Thanks for the recipe. I'll make it in the morning with pancakes for my wife and kids.
I actually really like the idea of you doing more recipes but you also tell some of the history behind them! You somehow make it more interesting than my own history teacher haha
For a minute I got excited because when John said "I'm going to make a banana playlist" I thought he meant on Spotify and I imagined banana related songs that we can play while preparing this dish.
Hey John! I was thinking of adding those delicious caramelized bananas in between the layers of my banana layer cake, but I'm not sure if they would perform well if I wanted to put the cake in the fridge and serve if on the next day, could you give me a piece of advice on this issue? By the way I love your channel, you are such an inspiration to me!🥰
This is my go-to "I have guests over" breakfast. I put it on French toast. If you shake a little cinnamon on while the flames are going, it sparkles. Really ups the impressiveness factor.
One thing I've learned about adding alcohol to a pan is you want to add it off heat then bring it back to the heat. It's more for safety and prevents the alcohol from igniting once it hits your pan.
So Happy to announce my cookbook! Pre-Order your copy today! preppykitchen.com/cookbook/ ♥
Congratulations!! I’m ready to buy!! Love your videos. You make everything looks so easy. :)
I can’t wait to order one I love 💕 all of your recipes
I'm deathly allergic to alcohol; can I use butterscotch and not "flame*on" it? And, 78% of the alcohol is left behind...😢
Watching John over the years and making his recipes I have reached the stage where I press the like button first and then watch the video :)
Me too! 😂
🙋🏽♀️
Me too, and it’s my thank you for his wonderful videos.
Jajaja me too
Ditto xx
When the world is falling to pieces. This always a joy. Love to you all.

Real question, where do you do it then? Like hold the pan away until it burns up the alcohol? I don’t want to burn my house down
@@anniemal8030that's what I would do just turn to the side. Good cooking tip @SirGonzola we know but we don't think about it.
Thank you
How dirty is your kitchen?
Dumb as hell
His kitchen struggles are so charming (funny) and endearing. It feels like I’m cooking with a friend and not just watching a show. What a guy. ☺️🍌💛

Did this one work out?

@@DaveTexas Did you ever wind up finding a better recipe? It’d be nifty to go with the best one available and you seem knowledgeable lol
Seeing you struggling to scoop out the ice cream was both cute and funny. I definitely plan to make this in the future.
I came here to comment solely on that. I must’ve laughter for a solid minute; it was so hilarious. Haven’t laughed that long and hard in quite some time.
This looks AMAZING! That music change when you scooped the icecream 🤣🤣
Always good to watch his cooking show, I'm watching this show from Rarotonga cook islands
Love the videos, you always make me laugh. I like how real and relatable you are. Thanks!
Everything about this man is delightful!! I can’t wait to make this recipe for my hubby!! 💙💙💙💙
Thanks so much for making this video! I had Bananas Foster at Brennan's a few years ago, and your video reminded me of eating this delish dessert. I will have to make this!
Thanks for this absolutely wonderful video n thanks for d lovely recipe.
Have u tried sticky rice with caramelized banana, drizzled with more caramelized sauce n evaporated milk or coconut cream?
I clicked so fast😂 this looks so delicious. I've definitely gotta try this one out 🤤 Right now I'm literally taking your cinnamon rolls out my oven. Thanks for sharing all your amazing recipes with us🤗 xoxo love from Trinidad
Do you have pictures? I'd like to see
I love this. I've made a similar one with fresh slices of peaches. So good!
Love your old school recipes! I'll bet you have a Cherries Flambe card hanging out in the recipe box.
For this one I skip the cinnamon in the sauce and make candied pecans with cinnamon. A blast of whipped cream and toasted coconut tops my version. ✌ 😃
Do you use kirsch to flambe the cherries or just regular brandy?
Thanks so much for this recipe; I am definitely going to make. I used to love eating at Brennan’s and ordering this for dessert.
Oh my goodness you always make me laugh. It makes cooking fun!
Thank you for all your videos! Love trying them!
This is one of those dishes that goes far beyond the ingredients and what you see. Magic happens when you make this. It tastes incredible.
I love bananas foster! Haven't had it since I was a kid. Defiantly going to make this! Thanks for bringing back an old favorite🥰
Oh hello! This is one of my absolute FAVORITE desserts. It is pure bliss.

I had bananas foster cheesecake with ice cream at Red Lobster years ago. I don't believe they have it anymore, but it was mind-blowing. It would be awesome if you made one!
A friend of mine made a Banana Foster cheesecake for dessert a couple of years ago with a dinner for 4. My Lord, that thing was delicious.
Just made this sans rum & it was scrumptious!!
You are right. It IS really good!
Luv luv luv absolutely delicious. Can you please do a canoli recipe 🙏🏾
We all sang when you said brown sugar and butter 😄
This looks good for an Oklahoma winter afternoon.
I love your range 🥰
I enjoyed watching this video, thank you.
Being from Nola I approve this video. Great job 👍🏼. It truly is DELICIOUS!! Also another amazing thing to eat it over is cheesecake.
Oh rum and bananas 🤤❤️ delicious 🥰
I've never had bananas foster before, but have always wanted to. Thank you for making this look so easy to make!
🤣🤣
Love the comedy in your videos!
I love Bananas Foster. First time I tried it was on a trip to New Orleans
It will be sweet and delicious😋
thank you for the recipe👍
Looks delicious!!! I wanna try to make it. Just need to get rum.
I tried this recipe and it’s delicious! The first time it was nasty because I used the recommended 80ml of rum; but as someone who doesn’t drink alcohol I decided to use only like 30 ml of rum.
Made this one tonight! Fun to make and we all loved it!! Thank you for the great recipe!
Sou do Brasil e amo seus vídeos!
OML that looks so good. Will need to make some of that this weekend after a trip to Acme
Oh man that looks delicious my mouths already watering
who knew that to make bananas foster you needed... bananas?? 😂 I LOVE you! (and your recipies too)
I made this a few days ago and my kids thought it was the fanciest thing they've ever had. It was easy. Thank you so much for this recipe. I felt like a rockstar and it was delicious!!
Did you substitute another ingredient for rum? I want to do this but all I have is wine. I am so craving this.....
@@rosezlynraj208 I made mine without the rum and it was heavenly.
@@EPavlinadid you just leave it out or should I put water?
@@aispryn I left it out and it was perfect.
@@EPavlina Thanks! I’ll give it a try!
This is my absolute favorite dessert

Omg I wish I could be there every time you made your recipes for your videos 🤤🤤🤤
I really enjoyed watching fully!! Be happy and have lots of happiness and may you have lots of success Stay blessed always. Big like
I am making this for brunch tomorrow. Thank you .
6:43 man just did the iconic mr bean laugh
That's a good recipe Thank you
I used the Stevia/ brown sugar product. It still caramelized, tasted great and reduced calories substantially.
Love bananas foster. 😂 thank you!
Great video John 😊😊
I had bananas foster French toast while on vacation. I think I’ll use this recipe to try making my own.
I’m so making this John, looks absolutely delicious! I noticed your Zeroll ice cream scoop has oxidized, did you put it in the dishwasher? I only noticed because my husband did this recently to ours.

It required quite a bit of elbow grease but an S.O.S (steel wool soap pad) brought mine back to brand new condition!
Running the ice cream scoop under warm-hot water before scooping makes the ice cream come out with ease!!!
This channel makes me want to do better at life.. That kitchen is insane!
Very good thanks
Looks delicious would that be good with pancakes?👍😊
This is so good
I’m going to go make this right now lol I hope it taste good I only have white rum!
It's soooooo goooood John thank you
You are so real and funny when you forget things, mess up or get hurt, (sorry.) Please do another blooper reel!
Ok, that’s the most adorable little cutting board!
This looks delicious!
Definitely a hit my family loved this one omg sinful!!!
Hmmmmmit looks so good I will make it for my family. Thx

I’ve made my own version of this dish I Call it Bananas Adopted Child
Ha John!
You said "don't be rough with your banana"
Important safety tip 🤣
Thanks for the recipe. I'll make it in the morning with pancakes for my wife and kids.
My favorite!
Yea!! & yes play list. My daughter did a version of these. Oh gosh ill send it.
I love banana recipes! So exited to try this!!😄
The few times I have been to the Houston location of Brennan’s I always get this. It’s delicious.
I love it so good
That looks so easy!
This look delicious!
I actually really like the idea of you doing more recipes but you also tell some of the history behind them! You somehow make it more interesting than my own history teacher haha
Bananas are my favorite fruit so I love every desert that's made with them!! 😋😋😋
