Boil and Bake Bananas
Peel the bananas. In a pot, combine the peeled bananas with the 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon, 3 tablespoons vanilla extract, 1 cup sugar, and 4 cups water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes.
Once boiled, transfer the bananas to an oven-safe dish. Bake them in an oven preheated to 275°F for 10 minutes. Serve warm, perhaps with a scoop of your favorite ice cream.
