Ingredients

2 large slices mountain bread
No stir, good Peanut butter
1 banana
Butter
Honey
Nutella (optional… but encouraged)

Step By Step

1️⃣ Build the Core
Spread peanut butter generously on both slices of bread. Slice your banana and layer it evenly across one side. Close it up.

2️⃣ Butter the Pan
Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Let it foam slightly… that’s your signal.

3️⃣ Grill to Golden
Add the sandwich and cook until both sides are deeply golden and crisp, pressing gently to help everything melt and come together.

4️⃣ Finish Sweet
Remove from the pan, drizzle with honey, and slice while warm.

5️⃣ Take It Over the Top (Optional)
Serve with a side of Nutella for dipping… if you’re leaning all the way in.

Chef Take

Crisp exterior, melty center, sweet and salty throughout. Breakfast, snack, or dessert… this one doesn’t need a time slot.
