Ingredients
- 34.7 g saba plantain
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 0.9111 tsp coconut oil
- 18.3 g whey protein powder
- 2.6 g slivered almonds
Method
- 01Place the unflavored whey protein isolate into a small dish or wide shallow bowl for dusting.
- 02Heat the coconut oil in a small non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the muscovado sugar and let it begin to melt.
- 03Add the peeled saba bananas to the pan and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes, turning frequently so the dark muscovado sugar coats and caramelizes on the banana surface.
- 04Once the bananas are soft and tacky with caramelized sugar, remove from heat and gently roll them in the whey protein isolate powder to form a lightly crispy coating.
- 05Thread the caramelized bananas onto a bamboo skewer, scatter slivered almonds over top for crunch, and serve warm immediately.
