Ingredients
Scale
- 2 Large Ripe Bananas
- 3 TB Vegan Butter
- 1/2 Cup to 2/3 Cup Dark Brown Sugar Sweetener (or preferred dark brown sugar)
- 1 Tsp Rum Extract
- 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 Tsp Banana Extract (optional)
- 1/2 Tsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 Tsp Salt (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium skillet, melt the vegan butter over medium-high heat, before adding the dark brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and extracts.
- Continue cooking the sauce over medium heat until it thickens and begins to bubble throughout about 2-3 minutes. Peel and slice the bananas while the sauce is thickening.
- Add the sliced bananas to the thickened sauce, reducing the heat to low.
- Gently toss the bananas in the caramel-like sauce until coated and the bananas just begin to get soft around the edges.
- Serve immediately over ice cream or your choice treat!
Notes
Slicing The Bananas:
- Lengthwise: Take your bananas, peel them, and slice them lengthwise in half. Then take the two halves and slice them lengthwise in half as well, creating 4 pieces that have a rounded outside and flat inside, as shown above.
- Round Slices: When slicing the bananas into coins, don't slice them too thin or they won't hold up to the heat. Slice them into rounds or diagonal rounds, about 1/4 inch thickness.
