Cinnamon-Baked Bananas*
Serves 1

1 banana
1/2 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

With the banana still in its peel, make an incision lenghtwise through the length of the peel and the fruit, leaving the underside of the peel intact. Pull the sides of the banana apart and dot with the pieces of butter inside. Sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon over the top. Wrap in alluminum foil and bake over high heat, 10 to 15 minutes, until the fruit is hot and soft. Remove and discard the foil; serve hot.
