Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Ripe bananas
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Butter, melted
- 0.5 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- Optional toppings (e.g., vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or crushed nuts)
Instructions
Peel the bananas and slice them in half lengthwise, keeping the halves as intact as possible.
In a small bowl, mix together the honey, fresh lime juice, brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until a smooth glaze forms.
Preheat your grill to medium heat and lightly grease the grates to prevent sticking.
Brush one side of each banana slice with the honey-lime glaze.
Place the bananas on the grill with the glazed side facing down. Brush the top side with more glaze.
Grill the bananas for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they develop caramelized grill marks and become slightly tender. Be careful not to overcook as they can become mushy.
Remove the bananas from the grill and serve immediately, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or crushed nuts for an extra layer of flavor and texture.
