Ingredients:

  • 2 slices (60g) whole grain or sourdough bread
  • 1 tbsp (14g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tbsp (32g) creamy peanut butter
  • 1 medium (120g) ripe banana, sliced into 1/4 inch coins
  • 1 pinch (0.5g) cinnamon

Instructions:

  1. Spread 1 tbsp (16g) of peanut butter evenly on each slice of bread, reaching all the way to the edges. Note: This creates a seal so the banana doesn't leak
  2. Arrange banana slices in a single, overlapping layer on one slice of bread.
  3. Sprinkle with cinnamon if using, then top with the second slice of bread, peanut butter side down.
  4. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium low heat.
  5. Wait until the butter is foaming, then place the sandwich in the pan.
  6. Press down lightly with a spatula to ensure full contact with the heat.
  7. Cook for 2–3 minutes until the bread is a deep golden brown.
  8. Flip the sandwich carefully.
  9. Cook for another 2 minutes until the bread is mahogany colored and the peanut butter begins to bulge at the edges.
