Peanut Buttery Banana Bowl Food

PEANUT BUTTERY BANANA BOWL!

Steps:

• Slice the banana into the bottom of a bowl.
• Cover with yogurt.
• Microwave the peanut butter about 30 seconds until warm and a runny consistency.
• Drizzle the peanut butter over the yogurt.
• Top with honey till sweet enough.
• Add granola if desired.

PEANUT BUTTER SMOOTHIE BOWL

Steps:

• Put the almond milk, ice, yogurt, peanut butter, chia seeds, vanilla, bananas and a pinch of salt, if using, in a blender and puree until creamy and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour into individual bowls and sprinkle with toppings of your choice.

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.
