Ingredients:

1 ripe bananas
1 tablespoons of coconut oil
2 tablespoons of brown sugar
A pinch of salt
1 teaspoon of cinnamon (optional)

Preparation

This recipe uses brown sugar, but you can use any sugar you have available.

All you need is one small banana and a couple tablespoons of sugar.

Instructions:

First, slice your banana into rounds that are about 1/2 inch thick. Set them aside for now.
Melt the coconut oil in a wide-based pan over medium heat. Once the oil has melted, add the brown sugar and salt to the pan and stir until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is bubbly.
Add the sliced bananas to the pan and toss them gently in the mixture. Cook the bananas for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they’re golden brown and caramelised.
If you like, you can sprinkle a little bit of cinnamon on top of the bananas as they cook. This adds a lovely warm flavour that complements the sweetness of the caramelised bananas.
Once the bananas are cooked to your liking, remove them from the heat and serve them immediately. You can serve them on their own, on top of porridge or even ice cream!

And there you have it! A quick and easy recipe for caramelised bananas that’s sure to impress. Whether you’re looking for a sweet snack to enjoy on a lazy afternoon or a crowd-pleasing dessert to share with friends, these caramelised bananas are the perfect choice.
