3 Ingredient Cinnamon Banana Slice Food

3-INGREDIENT BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the longer sides.
• Mash 3 of the bananas with a fork in a large bowl until very smooth, reserving the fourth and least-bruised banana for the bread topper. Whisk in the eggs and cake mix until just combined and no lumps remain.
• Transfer to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a small offset spatula. Slice the remaining banana in half lengthwise, then place the halves cut-side up on top of the batter, with the curves facing each other. Bake until deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes.
• Transfer the loaf pan to a wire rack to cool slightly, about 10 minutes. Run a knife or offset spatula around the edges of the pan, then invert the banana bread onto the wire rack and cool completely.

FRIED SWEET BANANAS

Steps:

• Cut each banana half into 3 or 4 pieces.
• Mix sugar and cinnamon together in a shallow bowl.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat; add banana slices and cook until golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer banana slices to a paper towel-lined plate. Coat banana slices, 1 at a time, with cinnamon-sugar.

3-INGREDIENT CINNAMON BANANA SLICE

Steps:

• Heat a nonstick griddle over a low to medium flame, and place the bread slice on it.
• Let it just lie there for about a minute (you can slice the banana now!).
• Now carefully cover the bread with the sliced banana discs, overlapping if necessary, and sprinkle the cinnamon over this.
• Using a flat spoon or ladle, gently press the bread slice with with back-to-front movements (you will see part of the banana slices sinking into the bread and the cinnamon merging with the bananas).
• When the bottom of the bread slice is well browned, remove from the griddle and eat immediately!

CINNAMON BANANA BREAKFAST CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F
• Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
• Add the eggs and continue beating.
• Add the bananas, vanilla, and buttermilk.
• In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon together.
• Fold flour mixture into the butter-banana mixture.
• Spoon the batter into the muffin papers.
• Slice the bananas and arrange them on top of the dough. Use as many slices as desired. (Remember, the dough will expand in the oven while the banana slices will tend to become smaller).
• Brush the tops with the melted butter and then sprinkle them with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
• Cool on wire racks.
