Filling Ingredients
- 3 pieces Ripe saba bananas (or firm ripe regular bananas/plantains) Choose ripe but firm bananas to prevent mushiness.

- 1/2 cup Jackfruit strips (optional) Adds a fruity pop.
Wrapper

Instructions
Folding Turon
- Lay one wrapper like a diamond with a corner pointing toward you.
- Roll your banana slice in brown sugar. Add a little jackfruit if using.
- Place the banana near the bottom corner, then fold that corner up over the banana.
- Fold in the left and right sides, like making an envelope.
- Roll upward tightly into a log.
- Seal the top corner with a dab of water.
Baking
- Place the rolls seam side down on a lined baking sheet.
- Brush lightly with oil or melted butter.
- Bake at 400°F (about 200°C) for 12 to 18 minutes, turning once halfway.
- For more color, broil for 1 to 2 minutes, but watch closely.
Notes
Best served fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven or air fryer. Avoid the microwave as it can make them soft.
