Sweet Banana Chimichangas Recipe

Sweet Banana Chimichangas Recipe

  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 ripe bananas, sliced
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons whiskey, or more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 4 (10 inch) flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 8 toothpicks (optional)
  1. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add bananas and sugar; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Stir in whiskey. Add honey; simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors are combined, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  2. Heat tortillas one at a time in a microwave until pliable, about 8 seconds.
  3. Spoon some of the banana mixture onto the bottom third of a tortilla. Fold in opposing edges and roll tortilla up tightly like a burrito, securing ends with toothpicks. Repeat with remaining mixture and tortillas.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
