Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 8 slices your favorite bread (Sara Lee Honey Wheat Bread recommended for its subtle sweetness)
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 medium bananas, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon sugar

Equipment

  • Large Cast Iron Skillet or Nonstick Skillet
  • Spatula
  • Butter Knife or Spreader
  • Cutting Board
  • Plate for Serving

Method
 

  1. Start by spreading a generous layer of softened butter on one side of each bread slice. On the other side, spread a hearty layer of creamy peanut butter.
  2. Place thinly sliced bananas on the peanut butter side of half the bread slices, then top with the remaining slices, butter side out.
  3. Heat your skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place two sandwiches in the skillet. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and the peanut butter has melted slightly, creating a gooey, delicious filling.
  4. Transfer the cooked sandwiches to a plate and immediately sprinkle with cinnamon sugar for a sweet, spiced finish.
