Baked Bananas
Description
This recipe takes a ripe banana cut in half lengthwise and arranges it on an oven-safe dish or foil. It is then drizzled with honey and dusted with cinnamon to enhance the natural sweetness and add a warm, aromatic spice. Covered tightly with foil, the banana is baked at 400°F for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on how soft you desire the texture.
The baked banana becomes tender and slightly caramelized inside the foil, making it a comforting and easy-to-make dish. Optionally, it can be served with whipped cream or light ice cream to add creaminess and balance the sweetness.
