Fried Banana Milkshakes
Sniff, sniff…milkshake week is over! I can't believe it. Be sure to scroll all the way to down and click over to all of the great milkshakes our friends shared today, especially Lindsay's Cherry Lambic Beer Milkshakes (woah!). And the giveaway, the giveaway!
This milkshake is the shake that started it all for me. I wanted to make fried banana milkshakes a few months ago…inspired by my brown butter peach milkshakes from last year.
I love love bananas. Banana candy (think laffy taffy), banana bread, banana muffins, bananas in smoothies, bananas with peanut butter, everything. So why not bananas in a milkshake but kicked up several notches?
Brown butter is so pretty, isn't it? It only takes a few minutes to brown butter. Don't take your eyes off that pan!
Bananas after they went into the skillet with the brown sugar.
Look at that…
I even scooped some of the brown butter and put it on top and served it with the milkshake, because brown butter is life and I had to.
These shakes are little because they are rich and you need them in your life. Boom!

Made these today – but I didn’t want to wait for the bananas to cool so they came out more like smoothies than milkshakes. But I have to say they were delicious!! Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Love caramelized bananas and those fried bananas look awesome! Pinned. Milkshake week has been great and thanks for spear-heading it. I’ve loved going around to all the bloggers who participated and being tempted all week long 🙂
Fried bananas are amazing! Turn them into a milkshake – oh, heaven!!
Thank you for hosting this fun week, Julie!
Fried bananas in a milkshake are genius! I love it Julie. Thanks for including me in Milkshake week!
YES PLEASE!!! I freaking love this idea! I often put fried bananas on ice cream, but haven’t thought to milkshake-ify it. YES!
This reminds me of my favorite island drink called a bumpin banana! I love bananas, especially when paired with browned butter:)

I SO love fried bananas. I’d have trouble putting them into the shake!! But this needs to happen…maybe with Shelly’s splash of Rum! 🙂
These have to be to be indulgent and fabulous. I WAAANT! And I second Shelly’s call for an “oops! splash” of rum!
oh my word, I can’t even imagine how delicious these are!! I might even add a splash of rum for good measure 🙂
