Instructions
Creating Portion Fix Fried Cinnamon Bananas is straightforward. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Prep the Bananas: Peel the bananas and slice them into thick rounds or diagonal pieces, about 1-inch thick.
2. Melt the Oil: In a non-stick skillet, heat the coconut oil or butter over medium heat until melted.
3. Add the Bananas: Once the oil is hot, add the banana slices to the skillet. Arrange them in a single layer for even cooking.
4. Fry Until Golden: Fry the bananas for about 2-3 minutes on one side until they turn golden brown.
5. Flip and Season: Carefully flip the banana slices using a spatula, then sprinkle the ground cinnamon and pinch of salt over them. If you’re using honey or maple syrup, drizzle it now.
6. Cook the Other Side: Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the other side is also golden brown and caramelized.
7. Remove from Heat: Once cooked, remove the bananas from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
8. Serve Hot: Optionally drizzle with some more honey or maple syrup, and garnish with fresh mint leaves for an extra touch.
