Toast with honey

How do you turn an ordinary toast into an extraordinary one? – Put some caramelized bananas on top! You're welcome!

I chose a super simple recipe that I keep close by – I plan to make caramelized bananas for pancakes or waffles too. They were... oh my, so good!

Ingredients:

• 2–3 well-ripe bananas
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• 30g butter
• 2 slices sourdough bread (I recommend @michaelartisanbakery)
• Cream cheese or cottage cheese
• Ground walnuts or pistachios
• Caramel for topping (optional, but sublime)

Preparation method:

1. Cut 2–3 bananas in half lengthwise, then again widthwise.
2. Sprinkle sugar mixed with a little cinnamon on both sides of the bananas.
3. Melt a cube of butter (30g) in a pan, then add the sugar-coated bananas.
4. Let the bananas caramelize over low heat for 3–4 minutes on each side. The melted butter and sugar will form a beautiful caramel that will stick to the banana slices.
5. Take two slices of good bread and toast them. I used artisan sourdough bread from @michaelartisanbakery , marking the beginning of a beautiful collaboration (I hope) with the producers of 100% natural bread, dedicated to quality, tradition and the complex and fascinating process that results in a bread with unique flavors and textures that attracts the appreciation of consumers looking for an authentic alternative to commercial bread.
6. Spread the slices of bread with cream cheese or cottage cheese, place the caramelized bananas, sprinkle some walnuts or ground pistachios and add a drizzle of caramel on top.
