Crispy shells filled with creamy bananas, whipped cream, roasted nuts, and luscious caramel drizzles in under 15 minutes.

# Ingredients:

→ Shells

01 - Crispy taco shells, sturdy and suitable for filling

→ Fruits

02 - Ripe bananas, yellow with light brown speckles, sliced

→ Dairy

03 - Fresh or stabilized whipped cream

→ Nuts

06 - Optional: chocolate sauce or crushed cookies for garnish

# Steps:

01 - Arrange taco shells on a baking sheet and warm in a preheated oven at 175°C for approximately four minutes to enhance crunchiness.
02 - Peel bananas and slice into generous coins or strips, then place them snugly inside each warmed taco shell.
03 - Pipe or spoon a generous amount of whipped cream over the banana slices to provide creamy richness.
04 - Evenly scatter chopped roasted nuts atop the whipped cream, pressing lightly to ensure adherence.
05 - Slowly pour caramel sauce over the nuts and cream, allowing it to pool slightly within the taco shell for optimal flavor distribution.
06 - For added indulgence, swirl warmed chocolate sauce or sprinkle crushed cookies on top before serving.

# Notes:

01 - Warming shells immediately prior to filling maintains crispness and structural integrity, preventing sogginess.
02 - Selecting ripe bananas enhances natural sweetness and complements the texture contrast.
03 - Assemble just before serving to preserve the combination of crunchy and creamy elements.
