Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2–3 ripe but firm bananas, sliced thinly
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade), warmed slightly
  • 1/3 cup chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or almonds)
  • 4 soft flour or corn tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted (for toasting shells)

Optional Ingredients

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon or nutmeg (optional, for dusting)
  • 2 tablespoons melted dark or milk chocolate (optional, for drizzle)
  • Powdered sugar, honey, or sea salt for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bananas: Slice the bananas into thin, even pieces to ensure they layer nicely within the taco and meld well with the caramel and nuts.
  2. Toast the Taco Shells: Lightly brush the tortillas with melted butter and toast them in a skillet over medium heat until golden and warm, creating a slightly crispy but flexible shell perfect for folding.
  3. Assemble the Tacos: Place the sliced bananas inside the warm taco shells, drizzle generously with warmed caramel sauce, and sprinkle chopped nuts on top for added crunch.
  4. Add Optional Toppings: If desired, dust with cinnamon or nutmeg and add a drizzle of melted chocolate or a sprinkle of sea salt to elevate the flavors further.
  5. Serve Immediately: Enjoy these tacos warm for the best flavor and texture balance before the shell softens or the caramel cools too much.

Notes

  • Use ripe but firm bananas to avoid overly mushy texture.
  • Warm the caramel sauce slightly for easier drizzling and better coating.
  • Lightly toast nuts before chopping to enhance their crunch and flavor.
  • Assemble and serve quickly to keep taco shells crisp and fresh.
  • Choose soft tortillas to prevent cracking when folding the tacos.
