Minatamis na saging (literally "sweetened banana")[1] is a Filipino dessert made with chopped saba bananas[2] cooked in a sweet syrup (arnibal) made with muscovado sugar and water. Some recipes also add a little bit of salt and pandan leaf or vanilla extract. Other ingredients can also be added like sweet potato, sago,[3] or other fruits like jackfruit. It can be eaten on its own or added as an ingredient to other desserts (notably for halo-halo). Adding the dessert over milk and shaved ice also results in another dessert known as saba con yelo (also sabá con hielo in Spanish).[4][5][6][7]

The dish can also be cooked with coconut milk instead of water, which is differentiated as ginataang saba.[8]
