Tropical Banana Split


One of my favorite things to do on vacation is take notes on favorite dishes so I can recreate them at home; these dishes help me remember everything from sunny patios overlooking the sea to celebratory family dinners filled with messy faces and full bellies. 

On a trip to the Florida Keys last winter, we had a version of this banana split that tastes like sunshine in a bowl. It is super tasty and incredibly easy to recreate at home.

Here is what you'll need for four desserts:

4 bananas
Small can of crushed pineapple
Macadamia nuts, chopped
Whipped cream
Coconut gelato (I like Cadia or Talenti)

For each dessert, place a split banana in a bowl and top with a scoop of gelato, two heaping spoons of pineapple, ample whipped cream, and chopped macadamia nuts. Serve immediately and enjoy sunshine on a spoon. 

What's your favorite travel-inspired recipe?
