Ingredients to make caramel banana flip

For the mass

• 1 cup of sugar
• 125g butter
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1½ cups flour
• 1¾ teaspoons baking powder
• ½ cup of milk
• baking powder
• Bananas

for the caramel

• 1 and a half cups of sugar
• 1/4 cup of water

Procedure

1. Combine the flour with the baking powder, then add to the shortening mixture and mix well. Finally, add the milk until the mixture is smooth. Pour into the prepared mold and place in the oven.

To make the caramel

1. In a saucepan or frying pan, put the sugar with ¼ cup of water at room temperature and mix. Melt over medium heat until it begins to turn caramel in color. (It is important to keep an eye on the color of the candy to prevent it from burning).
2. Once the caramel is ready, cover the entire base of the mold with the caramel and place the banana or pineapple slices (if using canned pineapple) on the caramel and then fill with the dough mixture.
3. Bake in a bain-marie at 180ºC for approximately 20 to 35 minutes. Later, turn around and enjoy this delicious dessert.

recommendations

• Use very ripe bananas for a sweeter flavor and smoother texture. Green bananas may be too firm and may not caramelize properly.
• Make sure to grease the mold well with butter or oil and then sprinkle with a little sugar. This will help the candy not to stick to the mold and make it easier to turn at the end.
• After baking the flip, let it sit in the pan for a few minutes before trying to flip it. This allows the caramel to set a bit and makes the flipping process easier without breaking it.
