Ingredients
- 1 medium unripe green banana
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons powdered erythritol sweetener
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Peel the unripe green banana and slice it into 1/4-inch thick coins. Using an unripe banana ensures lower sugar content, making it keto-friendly.
Step 2
In a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until it begins to bubble.
Step 3
Once the butter is melted, add the powdered erythritol sweetener to the skillet and stir until it is fully dissolved.
Step 4
Add the banana slices to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown.
Step 5
Carefully flip the banana slices using a spatula, and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side, until they become caramelized and tender.
Step 6
Lower the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt. Gently stir the mixture to ensure the banana slices are coated evenly with the sauce.
Step 7
Remove from heat and serve immediately. These Keto Caramelized Bananas are perfect as a topping or a sweet snack on their own.
