Amaretto and Honey Grilled Bananas
Amaretto is an Italian, sweet, smooth, almond liquor. It is wonderful in cookies, and cakesor even savory dishes like lamb. My dad is a retired Italian man, which mean the 3 liquors always on hand are: grappa, limoncello and amaretto. A couple other kitchen staples of my parent’s are bananas and plain Greek yogurt. One morning I was staying at my parent’s house and decide to throw these flavors together for breakfast. This is shaping up to be a deliciously spiked Sunday….
The Amaretto and honey are so delicious together! Beware though, I kept making more and before I knew it I had the munchies :o)
I put this over greek yogurt, but how delicious would this be poured over pancakes!?
