  9 1/2    tablespoons  butter
     1/2           cup  brown sugar
  1 1/2           cups  granulated sugar
  1                cup  bananas -- mashed
  2                     eggs
  1         tablespoon  vanilla extract
     1/4           cup  dark rum
  2               cups  flour
  1           teaspoon  baking soda
     1/2      teaspoon  salt
  1           teaspoon  ground cinnamon
     1/2      teaspoon  nutmeg
     1/4      teaspoon  ground ginger
     1/2           cup  sour cream
  2              large  bananas -- unripe, cut into
                        -- 1/3" slices
  1 1/4           cups  walnuts -- broken

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 F. In a 10-inch oven-proof skillet, melt 5 1/2 Tbs of the butter with the brown sugar over very low heat. Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, cream the remaining 4 Tbs of butter with the white sugar until light. Add the mashed bananas, eggs, vanilla and rum; stir. Then add the flour, baking soda, salt and spices; beat in sour cream. Arrange the banana slices in a pretty pattern in the skillet with the brown sugar mixture; top with the walnuts. Pout the batter over all and place in the oven for 50 to 60 mins or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Turn out immediately onto a plate. Serve with ice cream if you are feeling especially sinful.
