Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Bananas
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 2 tablespoons Low Carb Sweetener (such as erythritol or stevia blend)
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
Peel the bananas and slice them into 1/2 inch thick rounds.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.
Once the butter has melted, add the low carb sweetener and stir to combine, creating a smooth mixture.
Add the banana slices to the skillet in a single layer and sprinkle with ground cinnamon and a pinch of salt.
Cook the bananas for about 3-4 minutes on one side, until they begin to caramelize and turn golden brown.
Carefully flip the bananas and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side.
Stir in the vanilla extract, gently coating the banana slices with the caramel sauce.
Transfer the caramelized bananas to a serving dish and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy the bananas on their own or as a topping for low-carb ice cream or yogurt.
