Instructions:

2. Heat the Coconut Oil:
- Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat.

4. Add Honey and Cinnamon:
- Drizzle the 1 tablespoon of honey over the banana slices in the pan. Stir gently to ensure all the slices are coated evenly.

6. Optional Serving Suggestions:

- Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a scoop of vanilla ice cream to enhance the flavors.
