Banana Casserole

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange the sliced bananas in a single layer in a baking dish, positioning them lengthwise.

Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, then stir in the light brown sugar until fully combined and the mixture becomes smooth.

Remove the butter-sugar mixture from heat and add the brandy, stirring gently to incorporate the alcohol evenly throughout.

Combine the raisins and chopped pecans in a small bowl, then scatter this mixture over the bananas in the baking dish.

Pour the warm butter-sugar-brandy mixture evenly over the bananas, raisins, and pecans.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes until the bananas are tender and the sauce is bubbling around the edges.

Remove from oven and allow to cool for 2-3 minutes before serving warm.
