Notes
Pro Tips: Use ripe but firm bananas for the best flavor and texture. Do not overmix the cobbler batter – mix just until combined. Let the cobbler cool for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow it to set. For an authentic bananas foster kick, add a tablespoon of dark rum to the banana mixture. A scoop of vanilla ice cream is the perfect finishing touch.
