Somehow I do not like fresh banana, my hypothesis is that back in Brazil bananas were everywhere, therefore I have a kind of “fobia”, but I like banana in cake, pies, bread…in another word cooked. We always have it at home since my husband likes them and many time we get at Costco…as you can see from the picture, he was not able to take care of the load so I decided to create a dessert with it. I wanted something simple and yet yummie.
Ingredients:
Ripe bananas
Spring roll wrap
Brown sugar
Cinnamon
Butter
Preparation:
Cut the banana in half. In the center of the wrap place brown sugar, cinnamon and 1 piece of banana. Wrap by folding like an envelope.
In a skillet melt the butter and add the rolls, let it brown both sides. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
The combination of the crisp hot/warm banana rolls with ice cream is just delicious…now I look forward to have extra ripe bananas so I have excuse to make the banana rolls.
Did you know that banana has many heath benefits?
Here are some of them:
Due to high content of iron, prevents anemia;
Reduce depression because contain tryptophan, help to improve mood;
Contain high fiber, therefore help bowel function;
Very high in potassium, prevent high blood pressure;
High in B vitamins, improve nerve function.

They look awesome! I bet they were incredibly tasty along with the vanilla ice cream. I’m not a fan of raw bananas either, and much prefer them cooked or baked.
Oh wow! I could make this for dessert this week. But I think I’d use plantains. I wonder if that could work.
Very fun! I’ve never been a huge fan of bananas either, but these look like they have the power to change that =D.
A restaurant near my house does a version of banana spring rolls with…wait for it…sticky rice. The banana-sticky rice texture combo is divine, as is the dark chocolate dipping sauce they come with. Just some ideas for next time : )
What a fun dessert! I rarely do much more with bananas than bake them into bread/muffins, so this would be a great change of pace.
Yes, this is really yummy. You can try this in the Chinese restaurant as Dim Sim.
This is a a great dessert. I’ve had banana spring rolls with jackfruit, which was divine!
I love this simple recipe! I think I’d have to summer in in caramel too!
We all have our strange food quirks. Mine is pumpkin. I do not like pumpkin pie. But I love pumpkin ice cream, pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins, and pumpkin cheesecake. Go figure…..
Sounds easy and delicious!
what a delicious way to cook bananas!! i’ll serve mine with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream! delicious!

I eat a banana every morning! I love them – this looks like a scrumptious treat!
YUM! These look fabulous. I find that the simplest desserts are often my favorite. Great creation
Oh, I love these! Try them with some honey drizzled on top – unbelievable!
Juliana, what a fascinating way to prepare bananas. I love bananas, fresh or cooked. I just recently made banana bread. But this recipe is so creative. I’ll have to try it. Great job.
Now you’re talking! Spring rolls + ripe bananas- fried. OK!!! With ice cream!
I love bnanas and this is terrific way to enjoy them! I am definitely curious and want to try this!
What a clever idea. I’m not a big banana fan either, but my husband loves them.

Since these have so many benefits, I shall eat a dozen of these a day.
excellent idea – I am making these this weekend!
Wow thats something… great idea, must be very yummy.
what an awesome idea! now i know where the ripe bananas will go:-)
Wow I LOVE this idea and never would have thought of it – looks great!!!
great idea!!! I was a little skeptical at first, but after seeing the recipe and photos would love to try it!
This is such a creative recipe using bananas! I love it! I will have to give this a try!
Your way of presenting your recipes ..so unique! Very delightful! W love bananas ..potassium plus:)I am looking forward to perusing your entries:)
A great dessert idea! Lovely sweet spring rolls… I also love apple in mine.
Cheers,
Rosa
What a brilliant idea! Kind of like a crepe, kind of like a blintz..but easier than both!
Try mashing up the banana and melt some choc in there…and roll them up as you have done it!
WHOA! These look awesome!! I have never ever heard of banana spring rolls but I am so glad I have now! I must make this recipe soon!!
Oooh, your banana spring rolls are really irresistible. I just bought some bananas today, gotta try out. I have not heard of banana spring rolls, only fritters, great creation and fusion!!! The chinese usu deep fried the spring rolls and I have not thought it’s possible to panfried or shallow fry too, healtier too. If this works out I will make more savory spring rolls in the future as I do not deep dry much at home.
What an interesting idea. Believe it or not, I have never even heard of these! They look great though.
What a lovely idea for those extra bananas. And the ice cream sounds like just the perfect finishing touch
Great idea! Reminds me of a dessert we had at Trader’s Vic. It was spring rolls fried with a banana and some peanut butter! It is a very popular dessert.
Hey great idea! I think I would need to sprinkle a little chocolate on them too! Beautiful work!
This is fantastic! I love making dessert spring rolls! Sometimes I wrap a twix bar in it. Thanks for sharing this. Will try yr banana version soon
What a nice idea! Quick and easy, and a great way to use up ripe bananas in a delicious way.
Great idea! I love spring rolls and putting a sweet spin on it is a fantastic idea!
So clever! I’ve never thought to do this but it makes perfect sense really!
Sweet spring rolls – wonderful!
I like cooked bananas way better than raw ones. This looks delicious and so easy!

What a great way to use up banana! Brown sugar and cooked banana is such a great combination. (My hubby hates banana and won’t eat them, even in cake.Ha ha, more for me then
)
I wish I had some of those right now! I love banana desserts
the banana is the perfect item to put in a spring roll–it’s already the proper shape! these look delectable and they’re a clever way to sneak some good-for-you stuff into dessert!
Sounds divine! I used to make bananas in pancakes, drizzle them with chocolate sauce and serve with ice cream like you
This is the perfect banana dessert and so creative, I love them!
Those sound fantastic with bananas! Yum!
yummy yummy! I love that they aren’t really deep fried, looks incredible with the ice cream…
That is amazing!! What a brilliant idea! I love it!
we also do banana spring rolls but we add jackfruit..
Oh my gosh!!! I have never thought of doing this. They look so good and I do love bananas
One of my favorites! I love how the sugar caramelizes and then the bananas are a bit mushy but still firm and sweet. Ice cream on the side makes this an absolutely perfect dessert! I think I need to pick up some bananas . . .
Wow! What a fabulous idea.
Mimi
What a great idea for very ripe bananas – I shall be trying out this one.
So simple looking, but delicious!
I love this recipe! It is so simple and elegant. My son and I were atching Disney today and they had banana recipes from all over the world, I love creative banana dishes, this one’s a keeper!
What a wonderful recipe and snack! Me too, I prefer banana cooked as well, love the natural sweetness it gives to a dish.
What a fun and clever dessert!!
What a great idea!! You always have great ideas!!
Very easy yet so tasty too!
I love fresh bananas but they have to be pretty fresh – don’t like them when they start to turn more ripe. I always have ones past their prime in the freezer for banana bread, but this looks an amazing alternative to that. Will definitely have to give this a try. Thanks for sharing!
The first time I ate this delicious dessert was in P F Changs and loved it.yours looks so good.
These look delicious! I love bananas and pastry, they go so well together with the creaminess and crunchiness!
yum, those look so good! What a great idea.
I always order a dish similar at the Thai restaurant when I am done. Never tried making it at home but definitely going to now!
