Ingredients
- 2 bananas
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Peel the bananas and slice them in half lengthwise, then cut the halves into 2 or 3 pieces, depending on the size of the bananas.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter with honey until smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Arrange the banana slices in a single layer in a baking dish. Pour the honey-butter mixture over the bananas, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon evenly over the bananas.
Top with chopped walnuts, distributing them evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the bananas are golden and the sauce is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of low-carb ice cream or a dollop of Greek yogurt if desired.
