Sandwich Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 2 slices whole wheat bread
- 1 medium banana, sliced
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Prepare the Sandwich: Spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter evenly onto one slice of whole wheat bread. Arrange the banana slices over the peanut butter layer. Then, spread the remaining tablespoon of peanut butter onto the second slice of bread.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Place the peanut butter-coated second slice of bread over the banana-topped slice, pressing firmly to secure the fillings inside.
- Heat the Skillet: Spray a skillet with cooking spray and heat it on medium heat until hot.
- Grill the Sandwich: Place the assembled sandwich onto the hot skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the peanut butter is warmed through.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and creaminess.
- Whole wheat bread adds fiber and a nutty flavor but can be substituted with your preferred bread type.
- To prevent sticking, ensure the skillet is properly sprayed and preheated.
- For extra crunch, consider adding chopped nuts inside the sandwich.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the sandwich warm and melty.
