Poached Bananas

The two words I’d use to describe this sweet treat are quick and easy. In its simplest form, bananas are poached in a sweetened coconut syrup. You can stop there—the bananas in the coconut broth are elegant as is—but I love to spruce it up with mini pretzels for added crunch and thinly sliced makrut lime leaves for color and aroma. The best part is that this dish barely takes any work and also happens to be vegan.
