Open skin of each banana with knife, then gently peel one side.
Lay peeled side in skillet and remove remaining peel.
Cook 5 minutes, spooning occasionally with cooking syrup.
Remove any nearby flammable articles, add rum and ignite; shake pan until flames subside.
Remove from heat. Add lime juice. Serve each banana warm with several spoonfuls of syrup.
