Bananas, in addition to being tasty, are full of nutrients such as potassium, fiber and vitamins, making the recipe even healthier!
Ingredients:
- 3 ripe bananas (preferably dwarf or silver)
- 1 tablespoon of honey or natural sweetener (xylitol, stevia or erythritol)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence (optional)
- 1 tablespoon of coconut oil or ghee butter (for more flavor and creaminess)
- 1/4 cup water (or more if needed to reach the right consistency)
- 1 tablespoon rolled oats (optional, for texture)
Directions:
- Prepare the bananas: Start by peeling the bananas and cutting them into slices or small pieces. The smaller the pieces, the faster the cooking process and the more intense the flavor will be.
- Cook the bananas: In a medium saucepan, add the sliced bananas and water. Cook over low heat for a few minutes until the bananas are very soft. Stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Add honey or sweetener: When the bananas are soft, add the honey (or your preferred sweetener) and mix well. The amount of sweetener can be adjusted to your taste, since ripe bananas are naturally sweet.
- Adjust the flavor: If desired, add ground cinnamon and vanilla essence to give a special touch to the flavor. Cinnamon, in addition to adding fragrance, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
- Let it be investigated: Cook the mixture for a few more minutes, stirring well so that the bananas break down completely and form a thick syrup. If you think it is too dry, add a little more water until it reaches the desired consistency.
- Optional texture: If you prefer a sweet treat with more texture, add the rolled oats and mix well. The oats will give it a nice crunch, as well as increasing the amount of fiber in the recipe.
- Finish and serve: When the banana jam has reached the desired consistency, remove it from the heat and let it cool a little. Serve in individual portions, as a dessert or snack. You can also add a little granola on top for extra crunch.
Tips for variety:
- Add chestnuts or almonds: For an even healthier and tastier touch, add chopped Brazil nuts, almonds or walnuts to the banana jam. They will provide crunchiness and more nutritional benefits.
- Iced version: If you want a refreshing option, you can put the banana sweet in the fridge and serve it cold, like a mousse.
- Grated coconut: Unsweetened shredded coconut is also an excellent option to add to banana jam, providing more flavor and a tropical touch.
