Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Bananas
- 100 grams Dark chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- optional Optional: whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel the bananas and slice them lengthwise in half.
Place the banana halves cut-side up in a small, oven-safe baking dish.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the brown sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to create a caramel mixture. Remove from heat.
Drizzle the caramel mixture evenly over the banana halves.
Sprinkle the dark chocolate chips generously over the bananas, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the chocolate is melted and the bananas are soft and caramelized.
Carefully remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool for 1-2 minutes.
Serve warm as is, or top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
