This dessert is a simple three-ingredient dish that you can make in less than five minutes. Just brown ripe bananas in the skillet until they are golden and caramelized on the outside with a soft and sweet inside! Divine!

After baking over the holidays, this is refreshingly simple, delicious, and healthy! The bananas must be very ripe so it’s a great to way to use up browning bananas. (See a trick on making banana wedges in the below video). You don’t need to add honey or sugar to this dessert because bananas are naturally sweet. Cinnamon is optional but adds depth of flavor. For butter, we prefer two tablespoons but you can cut in half if you wish.

We enjoy “as is” but this also makes a great topping with ice cream, pancakes, or waffles.
