How To Serve Bananas Foster Muffins

These decadent New Orleans-style muffins are a welcome addition to any breakfast or brunch and make a great snack with a cup of coffee or tea.

What Is Bananas Foster?

Bananas Foster is a dessert made with bananas, butter, brown sugar, and rum. Served with vanilla ice cream, this dessert originated in New Orleans at Brennan’s restaurant in 1951. It was named after Richard Foster, a loyal customer.

What Is The Secret To Moist Muffins?

  • Make sure your bananas are very ripe. A lot of the moisture comes from the bananas. The bananas should have lots of black spots on them.
  • Sour cream, butter, and buttermilk are 3 ingredients that help produce moist muffins.
  • Do NOT overbeat the batter. Only mix until the ingredients are combined. Use a whisk and not an electric mixer.
  • Do NOT overbake the muffins. Muffins are done when you gently press on the top and they feel firm. Be sure to check just before the 16 minute mark.

Sugary Rum Caramel Sauce

The Rum Caramel Sauce adds extra sweetness and flavor to these muffins. Only 4 ingredients are needed for it: light brown sugar, butter, heavy cream, and dark rum. To make it, simmer the ingredients in a saucepan for 1 minute. Couldn’t be easier.

Storage

Muffins can be stored at room temperature for 2 to 3 days. Place them in an airtight container with a layer of paper towels beneath them and on top. This will prevent the tops of the muffins from getting sticky and wet.
