Caramelized Banana Topping
If you’re looking for a quick way to upgrade your breakfast bowl, this caramelized banana topping is it. It’s sweet, spiced, and jammy—with just a few ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 ripe banana
- ½ cup brown sugar
- A splash of vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- Lots of cinnamon
Instructions
- Slice the banana and toss everything into a small pan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens into a glossy, jammy consistency (about 8–10 minutes). Let it cool slightly, then transfer to a jar or container and store in the fridge.
How to Use It:
This topping is insanely good on hot cereal (we’re biased, but ChiChi + caramelized banana = unreal). You can also swirl it into smoothies, spoon it over pancakes, or even stir it into a latte for a cozy, banana-spice vibe.
It keeps well in the fridge for a few days—if you don’t eat it all in one go.
