- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your BBQ grill to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon, honey, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Brush the grill with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Peel the bananas and slice them in half lengthwise.
Place the banana slices on the grill, cut side down, for about 3-4 minutes until grill marks form.
Gently flip the bananas with a spatula and grill on the other side for another 3-4 minutes until they are heated through and slightly softened.
Transfer the grilled bananas to a serving platter.
Drizzle the honey and cinnamon mixture over the warm bananas.
Serve immediately for best flavor.
