BAKED BANANAS

Desserts were never a large part of the African diet. For a long time, sugar was really expensive. Desserts were usually reserved for Christmas. This is a fairly healthy and easy to fix dessert. Recipe from Angela Shelf Medearis.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe bananas with yellow skin and brown spots. Overripe bananas will result in a mushy texture.
  • Use a fork to mash the bananas instead of a blender or food processor. This will prevent the bananas from becoming too smooth and losing their texture.
  • Add a variety of spices and flavorings to your bananas before baking. Cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and vanilla extract are popular choices.
  • Top the bananas with a variety of nuts, seeds, and dried fruits before baking. Walnuts, pecans, almonds, sunflower seeds, and raisins are all great options.
  • Bake the bananas at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help to caramelize the sugars in the bananas and create a crispy exterior.

Conclusion:

Sweetly Baked Bananas is a delicious and easy dessert that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a variety of flavor combinations to choose from, there's a recipe for everyone. So next time you have a few ripe bananas on hand, give this recipe a try!
