Slow Cooker Pina Colada Bananas Foster

I took bananas Foster one step further and combined it with the flavors of my favorite tropical drink—pina colada. Make sure your bananas are not super ripe. You will want to choose ones that are still nice and firm, as they'll work best in this recipe. —Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho

  • 1/4 cup rum
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
  • 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut, toasted
