Peel the bananas and slice them into 1/2-inch thick coins.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter to melt.
Dip each banana slice into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated, and carefully place it into the skillet.
Cook the banana slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crisp.
Repeat in batches, adding the remaining butter as needed.
Once cooked, transfer the banana dollars to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
Drizzle the banana dollars with maple syrup or honey for added sweetness.
Serve warm and enjoy your Sweet Banana Dollars!
