How to Make Bananas In Coconut Cream
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Remove from heat and gently stir in 2 ripe bananas, sliced into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
- Return the saucepan to low heat and cook for another 30 seconds, just enough to coat the bananas in the creamy sauce. Do not boil vigorously.
- Serve immediately warm, topped with a scoop of your favorite vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Garnish with toasted coconut flakes (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
