Pour the mixture into a heavy-bottomed saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent sticking or burning.

💡 Chef's Tip
Use overripe bananas with brown spots for maximum natural sweetness and a deeper, more complex flavor. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
