For an enhanced flavor profile, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the cinnamon-sugar mixture. If you prefer a richer flavor, brown the butter slightly before adding the bananas. Watch carefully to avoid burning. Plantains can be substituted for bananas. Use green or yellow plantains, not black. For a dairy-free version, use coconut oil instead of butter.
