Grilled Banana Sundaes with caramelized nuts topping have a rich history dating back to the early 20th century. This delectable dessert originated in the southern United States, where chefs sought to elevate the classic banana split by adding a smoky twist. Renowned chefs like Emeril Lagasse and Paula Deen have popularized this indulgent treat, infusing it with their signature Southern flair. The key to a perfect Grilled Banana Sundae lies in the caramelization of the bananas, which brings out their natural sweetness and adds a delightful charred flavor. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in upscale dessert parlors and trendy restaurants across the country. For a unique twist, consider adding a drizzle of bourbon-infused caramel sauce for an extra layer of indulgence.
