Peanut Butter And Banana Panini Sticks Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA PANINI

Steps:

• Lay out the bread slices and spread them both with peanut butter. Lay the banana slices on one piece of bread. Press the 2 slices together.
• Butter one side of the sandwich and put it on a hot panini maker butter-side down. Butter the other side, close the lid and cook until it's toasted and warmed through. (If you do not have a panini maker, you can grill the sandwich in a skillet, laying another heavy skillet on top of the sandwich to press it together. Turn to grill the other side in the same way.)
• Sprinkle with powdered sugar, cut in half and serve!

CRUNCHY MONKEY PEANUT BUTTER-BANANA STICKS

Steps:

• Heat the peanut butter in the microwave on high for 20 seconds to loosen it, then stir honey into it. Place the granola into a food processor and lightly process to crush up the granola, nuts, and raisins. Peel and cut each banana in half across the middle. Insert a popsicle or chop stick into the cut end of each half-banana. Spread 1 side of each banana stick with 1/4 of the peanut sauce then coat liberally with spoonfuls of granola, gently pressing it into the peanut butter. Eat the bananas right off the sticks, but serve on a plate to catch the crumbs.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY PANINI

Steps:

• Spread peanut butter liberally on one slice of bread.
• Spread jelly on the other slice.
• Put the two pieces together.
• Place the sandwich on a pre-heated panini maker.
• Close the top and cook three minutes.
• Remove, slice in half and serve.
• (If you have toddlers, you might wait a minute to let the bread cool slightly for them).
