Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bananas
- 1 cup Dark chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2
Peel the bananas and slice them in half lengthwise. Place the banana halves, cut side up, in the prepared baking dish.
Step 3
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the honey and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 4
Drizzle the butter mixture evenly over the bananas, ensuring they are coated for added flavor and caramelization.
Step 5
Sprinkle the chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts on top of the bananas, spreading them out evenly.
Step 6
Lightly sprinkle the sea salt over the bananas to enhance the sweetness and flavor balance.
Step 7
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bananas are tender and the chocolate is melted.
Step 8
Remove the dish from the oven and allow the bananas to cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as is, or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgence.
