Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe but firm bananas (sliced into 1/2-inch rounds)
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- pinch of salt
- optional honey or maple syrup for drizzling
Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add brown sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt, stirring until combined and slightly bubbly.
- Add banana slices in a single layer and cook for 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown and caramelized. Gently flip with a spatula to avoid breaking the slices.
- Once both sides are caramelized, remove from heat. Serve warm as-is or over pancakes, oatmeal, ice cream, or toast. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup if desired.
Notes
- Use bananas that are ripe but not too soft for the best texture.
- Add a pinch of nutmeg or vanilla extract for extra flavor.
- These are best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated gently in a skillet.
