For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a drizzle of chocolate syrup or a sprinkle of chopped nuts. Feel free to experiment with different flavors of ice cream, such as chocolate, strawberry, or coffee. Toasted coconut flakes make a delightful substitute for almonds. If you're feeling adventurous, try flambéing the banana slices with a touch of rum for a decadent twist.
