3. Prepare the Bananas: Peel the bananas and cut them in half lengthwise.

4. Glaze the Bananas: Brush the banana halves generously with the honey mixture, coating them evenly on all sides.

5. Grill the Bananas: Place the banana pieces on the preheated grill. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes, turning once halfway through the cooking time. Brush the bananas frequently with the remaining honey mixture to create a caramelized glaze.

7. Optional Flambe (Flambe Step): For an elegant touch, you can drizzle 1 tablespoon of liqueur over each individual serving dish. Alternatively, if serving on a platter, drizzle 8 tablespoons of liqueur over all servings and flambe for a dramatic presentation.
