Ingredients

• 2 whole Bananas
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the bananas and slice them into thick, diagonal slices about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 2

In a large non-stick skillet, heat the unsalted butter over medium heat until melted and slightly bubbling.

Step 3

Lay the banana slices in a single layer in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, until golden brown, then gently flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to low, drizzle the honey evenly over the bananas, and sprinkle with ground cinnamon.

Step 5

Add the vanilla extract by sprinkling it over the bananas and gently stir to coat the bananas evenly in the honey mixture (be gentle to avoid breaking the slices).

Step 6

Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the caramelized bananas to a serving plate.

Step 7

Optionally, garnish with chopped nuts for added crunch and flavor.

Step 8

Serve warm as is, or pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a more indulgent dessert.
