Ingredients

  • 2 pieces Bread slices
  • 2 tablespoons Peanut butter
  • 1 medium Banana
  • 1 teaspoon Butter (optional, for toasting)
  • 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Place the two slices of bread on a clean surface, such as a cutting board or plate.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Peel the banana and slice it into thin, round pieces about 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick.

Step 4

Layer the banana slices over the peanut butter on one slice of bread. Ensure they are evenly distributed for a consistent taste.

Step 5

If desired, drizzle 1 teaspoon of honey over the banana slices for extra sweetness.

Step 6

Place the second slice of bread, peanut butter side down, on top of the banana-covered slice to form the sandwich.

Step 7

For a cold sandwich, cut in half and serve immediately. For a toasted sandwich, follow these steps:

Step 8

Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat and spread 1/2 teaspoon of butter on the outside of one bread slice.

Step 9

Place the sandwich in the skillet, buttered side down, and spread the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of butter on the top slice.

Step 10

Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and toasted. Use a spatula to gently flip the sandwich.

Step 11

Remove from the skillet, cut in half, and serve warm.
