Equipment

  • Blender
  • Sauté pan
  • Rubber spatula
  • Glasses

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large banana
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups milk
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup strong coffee
  • 1 cup ice

Instructions
 

  • In a sauté pan on medium heat add the butter, brown sugar, bananas and cook for 2-3 minutes until caramelized. The color will be deep brown and have a bitter sweet smell. Do not let it burn.
  • While the bananas and caramel is still warm transfer it to a blender, add the cinnamon, vanilla, salt and milk. Blend until smooth, adjust the consistency with water if you need to think it out.
  • In a large glass add ice, pour over the coffee and top with the banana milk.
  • This recipe makes 2 glasses.

Notes

  • Once the bananas are caramelized blend it with the remaining ingredients until smooth immediately or else the caramel will get hard and wont blend smoothly.
  • Serve it hot or cold but I prefer it cold.
  • You can make one glass and store the extra milk in a bottle in the fridge.
