Ingredients
  

  • 2 bananas (slightly overripe)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (or substitute)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

Equipment

  • Large Skillet
  • Small Bowl

Method
 

  1. Slice the bananas into rounds, approximately ⅓ inch thick.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if desired). Set aside.
  3. Lightly spray a large skillet with nonstick oil spray and warm over medium-low heat. Add the banana slices.
  4. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon mixture on top. Cook for about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Flip the rounds, then sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon mixture. Cook for 2-3 more minutes until the bananas are soft and warmed through.

These Pan Fried Cinnamon Bananas are best served warm, straight from the skillet. They can be enjoyed on their own as a snack or served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful dessert treat.
