Many years ago, I was making pancakes and realized that I didn’t have any maple syrup in the fridge. I then had a “MacGyver Moment” and pulled out three ingredients that would replace the need for maple syrup: a banana, some brown sugar and butter.
Not only did it work, but I swear this sauce has totally replaced the need to have Maple Syrup in my fridge.
Ingredients:
one banana
1/4 cup brown sugar
2-3 tablespoons butter
cinnamon (optional)
Directions:
1. Melt the butter and the brown sugar.
2. Add the sliced banana. *the hotter the pan…..the better, so take your time to ensure that everything will caramelize (this is a good thing!!)
FINAL PRODUCT
Sprinkle with cinnamon if you want!!
I serve this sauce with french toast or pancakes and without fail it’s always a hit.
Happy Cooking.
