Caramelized Bananas (Easy Recipe)

Step 1

Peel and slice bananas into lengthwise slices or thick round coins. Grease a plate with butter or cooking spray and set it aside.

Step 2

Pour sugar on a separate plate and roll the bananas around until completely coated.

Step 3

Cook the bananas in a preheated, medium-high heat skillet until light to golden brown at the bottom, about 4-5 minutes. Be careful not to burn them. Gently lift the bananas with a fork to see underneath. Flip them over right away if you smell or see them over-browning.

Step 4

Once flipped over, reduce the heat to medium and cook the other side of the bananas for 1 minute.

Step 5

Transfer the caramelized bananas onto the greased plate. Arrange them in a single layer - no overlapping - to keep them from sticking together. Serve them as is or top them on ice cream, pancakes, or waffles. Enjoy!
