Dreamy Baked Bananas

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Step 2

In a bowl, whisk together the nut butter, milk, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. It will be thick but should be smooth.

Step 3

Transfer to a baking dish or glass pie plate.

Step 4

Peel the bananas and slice in half lengthwise.

Step 5

Place banana slices in the mixture, then gently flip so both sides are coated.

Step 6

Sprinkle on the raisins or chopped dates, followed by the coconut sugar, if using.

Step 7

Bake for 17–20 minutes. Serve hot or warm preferably. While still good cooled, this dessert is definitely best a little warm—ice cream prefers it that way!
