Ingredients

  • 4 ripe bananas
  • 4 cups Vanilla ice cream
  • Sprinkles
  • Chopped peanuts
  • Caramel sauce
  • Chocolate syrup
  • Whipped cream
  • Maraschino cherries

Instructions

  • Slice each of your bananas in half lengthwise.
  • Fill 4 oval shaped bowls or dishes with ice cream and add two slices of banana to the sides.
  • Top your banana splits with sprinkles, chopped peanuts, caramel, chocolate syrup, whipped cream, and cherries as desired.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Ideally you want to use bananas that have a few brown spots, but are not overly ripe. If your bananas are too ripe then they will be difficult to slice in half and if they are too green they will not be very sweet.
  • Other toppings you can use are crushed toffee pieces, strawberry purée, mini chocolate chips, etc.
  • We like to lay out our toppings buffet style so everyone can customize their own banana split.
