  • If you want to make caramelized bananas without sugar, you can use Stevia or an alternative sugar substitute.
  • You could also flavor the bananas with rum, bourbon, maple syrup, coconut extract or almond extract.
  • Make vegan caramelized bananas by using vegan butter or coconut oil. And if all you have is unsalted butter, add a dash of salt.

  • Oven Instructions: Preheat oven to 400ºF. Slice bananas however you'd like and place them on a baking sheet. Top with small chunks of butter. Sprinkle on the sugar and cinnamon. Bake for about 18-20 minutes, or until the bananas are a beautiful golden color and the butter sauce has slightly caramelized. With this method, the sauce will not be as thick as cooking it on the stove. During the last 2-3 minutes, stir in the vanilla extract, if desired.
