Ingredients

• 2 pieces Banana (ripe but firm)
• 1 small Pineapple (peeled, cored, and sliced)
• 2 pieces Peach (ripe but firm)
• 3 tablespoons Butter (unsalted)
• 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 10 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and slice the bananas into 1-inch thick pieces.

Step 2

Cut the pineapple into bite-sized wedges or chunks.

Step 3

Pit and slice the peaches into thick wedges.

Step 4

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and start bubbling slightly.

Step 5

Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly into the melted butter and let it dissolve, stirring gently with a wooden spoon.

Step 6

Add honey, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and lemon juice to the skillet. Stir well to combine, forming a smooth caramel sauce.

Step 7

Carefully add the fruit to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 3–4 minutes, occasionally stirring, until the fruits are coated in the caramel sauce and slightly softened. Avoid overcooking to maintain their texture.

Step 8

Transfer the caramelized fruits to a serving platter, arranging them attractively. Drizzle any remaining caramel sauce from the skillet over the fruits.

Step 9

Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor, if desired.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature as a dessert or alongside vanilla ice cream.
