    Banana Napoleon with Rum Cream


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    6 pieces puff pastry dough (3x4-inches each)

    FOR THE RUM CREAM:
    1 cup heavy cream
    2 tbsp sugar
    1 to 2 tbsp dark rum
    1/2 tsp vanilla extract

    FOR THE BANANAS:
    4 to 5 medium bananas
    1 tbsp lime juice
    1 tbsp orange juice

    TO SERVE:
    1 cup store-bought caramel sauce

    Recipe



    PREPARE THE PUFF PASTRY:
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

    Place the puff pastry on parchment lined baking sheets, 1/2-inch apart. Place parchment on top of the dough and then on a wire rack or baking sheet on top.

    Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. (If you are using a baking sheet on top, you will have to remove the baking sheet to see if the puff is done.) Cool to room temperature.

    Slice each piece of puff pastry in 1/2 horizontally along the 4-inch side; set aside.

    PREPARE THE RUM CREAM:
    Beat the cream, sugar, rum, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until soft peaks form; set aside.

    PREPARE THE BANANAS:
    Slice the bananas 1/2-inch thick on a bias. Place them in a bowl and mix in the lime and orange juices.

    TO ASSEMBLE THE NAPOLEONS:
    Place some bananas and a little rum cream on each of 6 plates. Place a piece of puff pastry on top. Place the remaining bananas and rum cream on the puff.
    Drizzle warm caramel sauce over and around the bananas. Top with a second piece of puff. Serve immediately.

    Servings: 6
