About Banana turon

Banana Turon is a popular Filipino snack or dessert made by wrapping slices of ripe saba bananas and sometimes sweetened jackfruit in a thin spring roll wrapper, then deep-frying until golden and crispy. The filling and wrapper are coated with caramelized brown sugar during frying, adding sweetness and crunch. Turon is a staple in Philippine street food, offering a delightful mix of textures and tropical flavors. Nutritionally, bananas provide a source of potassium, vitamins B6 and C, and dietary fiber, aiding digestion and heart health. However, Turon’s high sugar content and deep-frying process contribute to added calories and fats, making it a treat best enjoyed in moderation. Pairing it with fresh fruits or reducing sugar can make a healthier alternative. This fusion of vibrant flavors showcases the richness of Filipino cuisine and cultural heritage.
