Ingredients
4
crispy sturdy thick taco shells
3
ripe bananas with slight brown speckles
1
cup
fresh or stabilized whipped cream
½
cup
chopped roasted walnuts
pecans, or peanuts
½
cup
thick rich caramel sauce without artificial flavors
Optional: warmed chocolate sauce or crushed cookies for garnish
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F and warm taco shells on a baking sheet for 4 minutes until crisp and warm.
Peel and slice bananas into thick coins or strips and evenly layer inside each warm taco shell.
Whip cold cream with a small amount of sugar to soft peaks or use store-bought whipped cream, then spoon or pipe generously over banana slices.
Sprinkle chopped nuts evenly over the whipped cream, pressing lightly to help them adhere.
Slowly drizzle caramel sauce over the nuts and cream to coat the layers thoroughly.
Optionally, enhance presentation with a swirl of warmed chocolate sauce or a sprinkle of crushed cookies.
Notes
Fill tacos right before serving to keep shells crunchy and use ripe bananas for creamy sweetness.
