Description
A warm and comforting banana cobbler made with tender bananas coated in a rich caramel-like sauce and topped with a buttery cinnamon walnut crumble, baked to golden perfection.
Ingredients
Scale
- ¼ cup salted butter (filling)
- ½ cup corn syrup
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ cup light brown sugar (filling)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ tablespoon rum extract (optional)
- 6 ripe bananas, sliced
- ½ cup salted butter, cold (topping)
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup light brown sugar (topping)
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
- Prepare the topping by cutting the cold butter into tablespoon-sized pieces. In a large bowl, combine butter, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Use a fork or pastry cutter to mix until the butter forms pea-sized crumbs. Stir in chopped walnuts and set aside.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine ¼ cup butter, corn syrup, heavy cream, and brown sugar. Stir until the butter melts and the mixture is smooth.
- Add sliced bananas, vanilla extract, and rum extract (if using). Gently fold to coat the bananas evenly in the sauce.
- Pour the banana mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle the topping evenly over the banana mixture.
- Bake for 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
- Serve warm for best texture and flavor.
