Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 ripe but firm bananas
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce (smooth and buttery)
  • 1/3 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans recommended)
  • 4 soft flour or corn tortillas
  • Optional: 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Wash and peel the bananas, then slice them into thin rounds or lengthwise strips based on your preferred filling shape and thickness.
  2. Warm the Taco Shells: Heat the flour or corn tortillas on a dry skillet or in the oven for about 30 seconds per side until soft and pliable, ensuring they are easy to fold without cracking.
  3. Assemble the Filling: Evenly place the banana slices on each warmed taco shell. Drizzle a generous amount of caramel sauce over the bananas to coat them with a luscious glaze.
  4. Add Nuts and Finish: Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the caramel-coated bananas for a crunchy texture. If desired, lightly sprinkle ground cinnamon or other spices to enhance flavor and aroma.
  5. Serve Immediately: Fold the tacos gently and serve right away to enjoy the warm shells with creamy bananas, gooey caramel, and crunchy nuts all in perfect harmony.

Notes

  • Choose firm, slightly underripe bananas to avoid mushiness under the caramel.
  • Heat tortillas thoroughly to prevent cracking and ensure a soft bite.
  • Use high-quality or homemade caramel sauce for the best flavor and texture.
  • Chop nuts evenly to improve presentation and ensure consistent crunch.
  • Assemble tacos just before serving to keep shells crisp and bananas fresh.
