Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices whole grain bread
- 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
- 1 medium ripe banana
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Honey or maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1: Toast the bread – Toast 2 slices of whole grain bread until golden brown and crispy
- Step 2: Spread peanut butter – While bread is still warm, spread 1 tablespoon of natural peanut butter on each slice
- Step 3: Slice banana – Cut the ripe banana into thick, even rounds about 1/4 inch thick
- Step 4: Layer banana – Arrange banana slices on top of the peanut butter, slightly overlapping
- Step 5: Add finishing touches – Sprinkle with cinnamon and drizzle with honey or maple syrup if desired
Notes
- Choose bananas that are ripe but still firm to prevent them from becoming mushy on the toast
- Warm the peanut butter slightly in the microwave for 10 seconds if it’s too thick to spread easily
- Toast the bread to your preferred level of crispiness to maintain texture contrast
- Slice bananas just before serving to prevent browning and maintain fresh appearance
