Ingredients

• 4 slices whole grain bread
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (low sodium)
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
• 1 large egg
• 0.25 cup low sodium milk
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 medium ripe banana
• 1 tablespoon honey

Directions

Step 1

In a shallow bowl, beat the egg together with the low sodium milk and vanilla extract. This forms the custard mixture for soaking the bread.

Step 2

Spread 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter onto one side of each slice of bread, then spread 1 tablespoon of low sodium peanut butter on the opposite side.

Step 3

Peel and slice the ripe banana into thin, even rounds. Set aside.

Step 4

Sprinkle a mix of sugar and cinnamon over the peanut buttered side of each bread slice.

Step 5

Place half of the banana rounds on top of two slices of bread. Drizzle with honey, then top with the other two slices to form sandwiches, with the peanut butter and banana inside.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add the remaining unsalted butter to melt.

Step 7

While the skillet is heating, carefully dip each sandwich into the egg and milk mixture, allowing the bread to soak but not become overly saturated.

Step 8

Place the sandwiches in the hot skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp.

Step 9

Once the sandwiches are cooked, remove from skillet and let cool slightly before cutting each sandwich in half or into quarters.

Step 10

Serve warm, with additional honey drizzled on top for extra sweetness if desired.
