Ingredients

• 2 slices Bread (your choice of white, whole wheat, or brioche)
• 2 tablespoons Peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
• 0.5 medium Banana
• 2 medium Strawberries (thinly sliced)
• 1 tablespoon Chocolate chips (optional)
• 2 teaspoons Crushed pineapple (well-drained)
• 1 tablespoon Butter (softened)
• 1 teaspoon Honey or maple syrup (for drizzle)
• 2 tablespoons Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon Chopped nuts (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter evenly onto one side of each bread slice.

Step 2

Slice the banana into thin rounds and layer them over the peanut butter on one slice of bread.

Step 3

Add thinly sliced strawberries, a sprinkle of chocolate chips if using, and a small amount of crushed pineapple on top of the bananas.

Step 4

Drizzle the honey or maple syrup lightly over the fruit layer.

Step 5

Top the sandwich with the second slice of bread, peanut butter side down, to create a sandwich.

Step 6

Spread a thin layer of softened butter onto the outer sides of the sandwich, ensuring even coverage for crispness when grilled.

Step 7

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, place the sandwich onto the skillet.

Step 8

Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and the filling is warm, pressing gently with a spatula for even cooking.

Step 9

Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for 1 minute. Slice diagonally to serve.

Step 10

Optionally, garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chopped nuts for that extra banana split touch.
