Directions
- Preheat one zone of the Pit Boss Ultimate Griddle to medium heat (375°F). Place a small saucepan or cast iron skillet on a lower heat zone for the Bananas Foster sauce.
- Prepare the pancake batter according to the package directions. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
- Lightly grease the griddle and pour approximately ¼ cup of batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form across the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown. Keep warm while preparing the remaining pancakes.
- In the saucepan or cast iron skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
- Add the sliced bananas and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, gently turning them until softened but still holding their shape.
- Stir in the vanilla extract, heavy cream, and optional dark rum. If using rum, allow it to simmer for 1 to 2 minutes so the alcohol cooks off and the sauce thickens.
- Stack three pancakes on each plate and generously spoon the warm Bananas Foster sauce over the top.
- Finish with chopped pecans and powdered sugar if desired. Serve immediately while the sauce is warm.
