Ingredients

  • 1/2 bag of a 17.3-ounce package <a href="http://www.campbellskitchen.com/" target="blank">Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets</a> (1 sheet), thawed
  • 6 medium banana, peeled
  • 9 tbsp 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar

  • 1 tbsp rum extract
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup sour cream

Directions

1. Heat the oven to 425°F.

2. Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut the pastry sheet into a 9-inch circle.  Place the pastry circle onto a baking sheet.

3. Bake for 10 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown. Remove the pastry from the baking sheet and let cool completely on a wire rack.

4. Cut the bananas in half lengthwise then crosswise into slices.

5. Heat 1/2 cup brown sugar, the rum, butter, lemon juice and cinnamon in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until the mixture is thickened.  Add the bananas and toss to coat.
