Ingredients (Serves 4–6)

  • 6 small flour tortillas

  • 3 ripe bananas, sliced

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

  • Optional toppings: whipped cream, chocolate chips, shredded coconut, or powdered sugar


Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Bananas

  1. Peel and slice the bananas into 1/2-inch rounds.

  2. In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

  3. Add the brown sugar and cinnamon, stirring until the mixture is smooth and bubbly.

  4. Add the banana slices and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side until they are caramelized and golden. Be gentle when flipping—they can get soft quickly.

  5. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Set aside.


Step 2: Toast the Tortillas

  1. Heat a dry skillet over medium heat.

  2. Warm each tortilla for 30–60 seconds per side until slightly crispy but still pliable.

  3. If desired, brush lightly with melted butter for extra flavor.


Step 3: Assemble the Tacos

  1. Lay a warm tortilla on a plate.

  2. Spoon a few caramelized banana slices down the center.

  3. Sprinkle with chopped nuts for crunch.

  4. Drizzle caramel sauce over the top.

  5. Fold the tortilla into a taco shape and serve immediately.
