Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Peel the ripe banana and place it in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Use a fork to mash the banana until it becomes smooth and free of large lumps.
Crack the eggs into the bowl with the mashed banana and whisk together until fully combined.
If desired, mix in ground cinnamon and vanilla extract to add extra flavor.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow it to melt and coat the surface of the skillet.
Pour the banana and egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
Using a spatula, gently stir and scramble the mixture, continuing to cook until the eggs are softly set and fully cooked, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the banana eggs to a plate.
Serve immediately as is, or garnish with fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of nuts for additional texture and flavor.
