Slightly underripe bananas are simmered slowly in brown sugar and water until they turn tender in a thick caramel syrup. A breakfast classic on Filipino tables, it is also served warm or cold as a mid-morning treat.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the Bananas

5 min

Wash the bananas well with their skins on and trim the ends.

2

Boil the Syrup

5 min

Bring the brown sugar, water and cinnamon stick to the boil in a wide pan.

3

Cook the Bananas

25 min

Add the bananas to the syrup and simmer over low heat, turning occasionally, for 25 minutes until the syrup thickens and the bananas soften.

4

Cool and Serve

60 min

Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool for at least 1 hour, then peel and serve.

Reminder

Cooking the bananas with their skins on keeps their shape and traps the flavour inside; only peel them just before serving. If the syrup gets too thick, add another spoonful of water.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Ground cinnamon can replace the stick, but it does not give as clean an aroma.
