Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 slices of whole grain bread
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 1 banana, sliced
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- Honey or maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
- Take the whole grain bread slices and lightly toast them until they reach a golden brown color and have a crisp texture.
- Once toasted, remove the bread from the toaster and place on a clean cutting board or plate.
- Using a butter knife or spreading utensil, evenly spread the peanut butter across the surface of each toast slice, ensuring complete coverage to the edges.
- Sprinkle the cocoa powder gently over the peanut butter layer, creating a light dusting that will add rich chocolate flavor.
- Carefully slice the banana into thin, uniform rounds, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- Arrange the banana slices neatly on top of the cocoa-dusted peanut butter, overlapping slightly for visual appeal and even distribution.
- If desired, drizzle a small amount of honey or maple syrup over the banana slices to add additional sweetness.
- Serve immediately while the toast is still warm, allowing the peanut butter to remain slightly melted and the banana slices to be fresh.
Tips
- Choose a high-quality whole grain bread with a sturdy texture to ensure it can hold up to the toppings without becoming soggy.
- For the best flavor, use natural peanut butter with minimal added sugars and a creamy consistency.
- Select bananas that are ripe but still firm—this ensures maximum sweetness and easier slicing.
- Lightly toast the bread to achieve a crisp exterior while maintaining a soft interior.
- Sift the cocoa powder for a more even and elegant dusting across the peanut butter.
- For an extra indulgent touch, use dark cocoa powder to intensify the chocolate flavor.
- If you want to make this recipe more decadent, consider adding a sprinkle of sea salt or a few dark chocolate chips.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the warm toast and slightly melted peanut butter at its peak deliciousness.
