Cinnamon Sauteed Bananas Recipes

CINNAMON SAUTEED BANANAS

Steps:

• Cut bananas crosswise into 1/4" slices.
• Toss slices in a bowl with the sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice.
• Heat saute pan over medium-high heat, add butter.
• When butter is bubbly, add the bananas.
• Holding the pan by the handle, toss the bananas every 10 seconds or so for 2-3 minutes until tender.
• (The slices should hold their shape and be carmelized) Serve on a warm plate-- good with ice cream or angel food cake or by itself!

PAN FRIED HONEY BANANAS

Steps:

• Remove the peels from the bananas and slice them 1/2" inch thick.
• Set a nonstick skillet over medium to medium high heat** and add the oil or butter, honey, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.
• Add the banana slices, and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden and caramelized. Be sure to watch the heat and turn it down if it browns too quickly. You want enough heat to caramelize and brown the slices, but you don't want them to burn.
• Once the bananas are cooked you can enjoy them as is, or with marshmallow creme and peanut butter in a sandwich, with Bananas Foster French Toast, in oatmeal or yogurt, over ice cream, and more. Enjoy!
