Honey Tips
Honey Bees Need Water
To keep their hives strong, beekeepers must place them in locations that will provide abundant nectar sources as well as water.
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 °. Lightly coat an 8-inch baking pan with butter.
Combine honey and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Boil 5 minutes without stirring. Remove from the heat. Carefully stir in orange juice and zest. Simmer 3 minutes.
Place banana halves cut-side-down in prepared baking pan. Brush bananas with butter and bake for 10 minutes. Pour sauce over bananas and continue baking another 10 minutes.
To serve place 2 banana halves on each plate, top with a scoop of ice cream. Spoon warm sauce over all.
