Cherry Banana Suzette- Raw Food Recipe

I was inspired to make this dish after going to the store the other day and picking up a case of bananas and a whole lot of fresh cherries.  We have been eating cherries by themselves as a snack or mono meal, but i wanted to make something simple, but special. The first thing that came to my mind was a sauce to put over the cherries and bananas. A suzette sauce is typically poured over crepes, but why not keep it nice and healthy and put it over the fruit. The sauce is usually made from butter, sugar and orange liquor.  Since the fruit is already sooo sweet, there was no need to add any additional sugar, and the butter is unnecessary because we are not sauteeing in a pan.  So all that was left to substitute was the orange liquor! How easy...i just used the juice and zest of the orange and added a little vanilla extract. It was very tasty! Give it a try. Perfect to entertain with and will go well with kids too!
