Notes
- This recipe is not suitable for overripe bananas. It requires ripe-yet-firm bananas. It's OK to use slightly under-ripe bananas.
- You can keep the leftovers in the fridge, in an airtight container, for up to three days. Reheat them in the microwave, covered, at 50% power.
- If you'd like to sweeten the bananas, cook them, remove them to a plate, and add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the pan. Swirl the pan to mix the sweetener into the pan juices, then drizzle the juices on top of the bananas.
- This is not a low-carb recipe.
