Nendran vs Regular Banana: What's the Difference?

Kerala's Nendran banana is a nutritional outlier — and the only one we use.

Nendran (Musa AAB) is naturally richer in resistant starch and potassium than common Cavendish bananas. Traditionally steamed for babies in Kerala households, it dehydrates into a powder with a deeper, almost caramel-like sweetness.

We source directly from our partner farms, paying fair prices for tree-ripened fruit.
