Make sure your banana’s are ripe and you don’t need a whole can of sweetened condensed milk, add it to taste

I made this and it didnt turn out at all. I have no idea what I did wrong even though putting bananas on the grill is not complicated but it tasted HORRIBLE. The banana itself smelled horrible and the taste was just as bad.

We thought it was amazing. It is easy and delicious. We sometimes substitute ice cream for the milk and caramel sauce for the cinnamon.
We have served it at parties and it is always a big hit!

I made these for a church cookout and they were well received. Extremely simple and delicious.
Steven Johnson
Very easy with fantastic bold flavors. I was thinking of adding brown sugar instead of cinnamon, but the condensed milk is very sweet and would probably be too sweet. Enjoy!!

My son loved this. It was the easiest desert I have ever made. I agree with the previous review; I’ll drizzle a little cajeta (mexican carmel sauce) over it the next time I make it.

This was so easy and very tasty. My sister put a scoop of chocolate ice cream in hers along with the milk and cinnamon – yum. There are a lot of possibilities with this and I can not wait to try it on Mothers Day with a little caramel mixed in with the sweetened condensed milk. Thanks for the idea! I’m lovin grilled pineapple and pears too!
