1 tablespoon Monk Fruit Sweetener
1 teaspoon Ground Ceylon Cinnamo
2 tablespoons Avocado Oil
1 pinch Sea Salt
Instructions
- Begin by peeling your firm bananas and slicing them into uniform rounds, approximately half an inch thick
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the almond flour, monk fruit sweetener, cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt
- Gently press each banana round into the flour mixture until coated, shaking off excess flour
- Heat a cast-iron or stainless steel skillet over medium heat, adding the avocado oil once hot
- Sear the banana slices for 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown, then flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes
- Remove the bites from the pan and allow to cool before serving
Notes
For the best crust, use superfine almond flour.
Lightly freeze banana slices for 10 minutes before dredging for optimal texture.
