Fried Banana

Submitted by Mia in Germany

"This is not really a recipe. My grandmother used to prepare this for me when I was little, and I loved it! This is not dairy free suitable, you have to use butter because that's what makes the unique flavor."

 

• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 2
• Yields: 1 serving
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• 1 medium banana, ripe
• 1 teaspoon butter

directions

1. Peel banana and cut in half lengthwise.
2. Heat butter in a non stick skillet until slightly bubbly but not brown.
3. Place banana halves in the hot butter and fry for about two minutes, then carefully turn and fry other side for about two minutes, too.
4. The banana halves should be slightly browned, so fry a little longer if they aren't browned after those 2x2 minutes.
5. Serve hot, sprinkle with some cinnamon if you wish (I never did).

Interesting and yummy way to eat a banana! It smelled really good while cooking too. I ate half plain and sprinkled some cinnamon/sugar on half and it was tasty both ways. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I made this for DD (toddler) she liked them. She loves anything banana. I tried it too and it was yummy. Yummier with unsalted butter. I tried both. For some reason it reminded me of my Grandma not sure if she made this for me but for some reason it did. I would make this again for young children especially. Made for Ramadan Tag 2010.
