01 -

Thirteen minutes from craving to satisfaction, faster than deciding what to order for takeout
The way your entire kitchen fills with that cinnamon sugar smell feels like a hug in aroma form

02 -

Crowding the pan steams the bananas instead of frying them so work in batches if needed
The sugar mixture will burn quickly so keep your heat at medium not medium high

03 -

Use a really good nonstick pan or these will stick no matter how much butter you use
Wait until the butter stops foaming before adding bananas or they will not get that perfect golden crust
