Pan-Fried Cinnamon Bananas – Butter Swim Biscuits Easy Recipes
Bananas sitting on the counter, quietly getting speckled? We've all been there. Before they go full mush mode, let me show you what I do with mine—something a little caramelized, a little spiced, and wildly snackable. I pan-fry them with a kiss of cinnamon and a splash of butter.
The result? Imagine banana bread and French toast had a kid, but the kid went rogue and became a rebellious, crispy-edged treat. I started making these as a quick fix for my afternoon sweet tooth and now… well, let’s just say I buy bananas in bulk.
Whether you're chasing a late-night craving or looking for a quick fix for the kids’ snack attack, this one hits the spot—no fancy tools, no oven, just you, your pan, and a whole lot of yum.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas (not too mushy)

Instructions
- Slice the bananas into thick coins—about 1/2 inch.
- In a non-stick pan over medium heat, melt the butter until it starts to foam.
- Add banana slices in a single layer and cook for 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon, sugar (if using), and a pinch of salt. Flip once more for flavor blending.
- Serve warm on toast, oatmeal, or straight off the plate with a fork.
