Honey Bananas Recipes

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!

HONEY-BAKED BANANAS

• Score banana crosswise 1/4 inch deep, every 1 inch apart. Coat banana with honey and sprinkle with coconut.
• Set a countertop convection oven to "turbo" setting. Cook until coconut starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Garnish with whipped cream.

HONEY-RUM GRILLED BANANAS

BAKED BANANA WITH CINNAMON & HONEY (LOW FAT / HEALTHY)

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 200c (or get your BBQ nice and ready if you're BBQing).
• Either slice the banana up into bite-sized pieces or cut it in half lengthways if you're looking for a smarter presentation or are having an ice cream banana split.
• Place the banana on an over-sized square of tin foil and sprinkle with cinnamon (to taste).
• Drizzle 2tsp of honey evenly over the banana and gather up the corners of the foil to create a little banana parcel.
• Place the parcel in the oven (or on the barbie) and bake for approximately 15mins.
• NB. Baking time depends on how you prefer your bananas - the more you bake, the more soft and gooey they get and the more the honey caramelises onto them. Personally I don't like mine too over-baked as I prefer the banana to still be a bit hard and the honey to be liquid.

HONEY-BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Beat butter at medium speed with mixer in a large mixing bowl; add honey, beating well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition, add the banana and mix well.
