Directions
1. Butter a baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the butter; or use solid margarine, not the soft diet type. 2. Peel bananas and leave whole or cut into 3-inch pieces. Place in a single layer. Sprinkle with the juice of ½ lemon. Pour honey on top evenly and dot with remaining 3 tablespoons butter. 3. Bake in preheated 350-degree oven for about 20 minutes. Turn bananas once or twice as they are baking. Sprinkle with cinnamon or a few grains of nutmeg if you prefer. 4. Just before serving, heat rum carefully and ignite. Pour over bananas and serve immediately.
