It’s time for banana crisp!

Yep, you heard that right.

Banana Crisp. 

 With an oatmeal cookie crumble.

And…

Chocolate Kahlua sauce.

It was actually called one of my best desserts yet.

And it only took me about ten minutes to throw together.

Too bad the photos took me two full days, and I’m still not even close to happy with them.

I’m really struggling to adjust to the different light here in Oregon. It’s totally kicking my butt. Like, seriously.

Ugh.

Anyway, have you ever heard of banana crisp? Because I definitely haven’t.

See, I love berry crisp—but not for dessert, and definitely not with chocolate. I’m not a berry-and-chocolate person. But I am a banana-and-chocolate person. Especially when the bananas are warm, gooey, and caramelized. Bananas at their absolute best.

Oh, and that oatmeal cookie topping?

Yeah, I don’t know if it technically counts as an oatmeal cookie topping, but it sure tastes like one, so I’m calling it that. It’s buttery, crunchy, and on top of those bananas?

So. Darn. Good.

But wait—there’s more awesomeness.

The chocolate Kahlua sauce.

Holy moly. Oh my gosh. Wow.

Really, that’s all I can say. The whole dessert is just incredible. Do everything—the crumble, the ice cream, and the sauce. Seriously, don’t skip a single part. Oh, and did I mention how easy it is? Because it is. All you need is one bowl, one baking dish, and a bowl for the Kahlua sauce. Done in 25 minutes. Yes!

Plus, it’s Friday, which means you get to eat a hot banana crisp with ice cream and chocolate Kahlua sauce dripping all over it. And honestly, there’s zero reason to feel guilty about this crisp because, one, bananas are crazy healthy, and two, oatmeal is crazy healthy. Heck yes!

So let’s go get our crisp on!
