Ingredients
2 slices of whole-grain or your preferred bread
2 tablespoons peanut butter (or almond butter)
1 ripe banana, sliced
Honey (optional, for drizzling)
Cinnamon (optional, for sprinkling)
Chia seeds (optional, for extra nutrition)
Instructions
- Toast the bread slices until golden brown and crispy.
- Spread peanut butter evenly over each slice of toasted bread.
- Arrange the banana slices on top of the peanut butter.
- If desired, drizzle a little honey over the bananas for extra sweetness and flavor.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon or chia seeds, if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Peanut butter and banana toast is best enjoyed fresh. However, if you have leftovers (without the banana), you can store the peanut butter-covered toast in an airtight container for up to a day. Simply add the banana slices when you’re ready to eat.
- For an extra protein boost, try adding flaxseeds or hemp seeds.
- If you prefer, you can swap the peanut butter for almond butter, cashew butter, or any nut butter of your choice.
- To avoid sogginess, make sure the bread is toasted until crispy before adding the peanut butter and banana.
