Recipe FAQ
- → How do I prepare the bananas and strawberries?
Peel and slice bananas into half-centimeter rounds. Rinse, hull, and slice strawberries to match banana thickness for uniform layering.
- → Can I substitute any ingredients?
Yes, kiwi or raspberries can replace strawberries for a different color and flavor profile, maintaining the festive appearance.
