These golden, bite-sized tatins are a delightful twist on the classic French dessert. Sweet bananas are caramelized in buttery sugar, then baked under a flaky puff pastry crust until golden and glossy. Flip them out for a stunning upside-down treat with gooey caramel, tender banana, and crisp pastry in every bite. Perfect for dinner parties or when you want a show-stopping dessert without much fuss.
