Ingredients

• 2 large ripe bananas
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 pinch pinch of salt

Directions

Step 1

Peel and slice the bananas into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Once the butter is melted, add the brown sugar and stir until it dissolves into a smooth, glossy mixture.

Step 4

Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring continuously to create a creamy caramel base.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and gently fold in the banana slices, ensuring they are coated in the caramel sauce.

Step 6

Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the bananas soften slightly but still hold their shape.

Step 7

Stir in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to combine.

Step 8

Remove from heat and allow the sauce to cool for 2-3 minutes. It will thicken slightly upon standing.

Step 9

Serve the warm banana sauce generously over scoops of vanilla ice cream or your favorite dessert. Enjoy!
