by

🛒 Ingredients

  • 🍌 1 large ripe banana
  • 🥜 2 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter
  • 🌾 1/4 cup granola or crushed nuts (such as almonds or pecans)
  • 🍓 Optional: Fresh berries, chia seeds, or shredded coconut for garnish
  • 🍫 Optional: A drizzle of melted dark chocolate or honey for added sweetness

🍳 Instructions

  1. Prepare the Banana:
    • Peel the banana carefully and place it on a clean cutting board. Choose a firm yet ripe banana for the best texture.
  2. Spread the Peanut Butter:
    • Using a butter knife or the back of a spoon, spread an even layer of peanut butter around the entire surface of the banana. Ensure the banana is fully coated to help the toppings stick.
  3. Coat with Granola:
    • Sprinkle granola or crushed nuts over the peanut butter while rolling the banana gently in the mixture. Press lightly to ensure the granola sticks well to the surface. For a varied texture, use a mix of granola and seeds.
  4. Slice into Rolls:
    • Use a sharp knife to slice the banana into bite-sized pieces, about 1 inch thick. Wipe the knife between slices for clean cuts.
  5. Add Garnishes:
    • Arrange the banana sushi rolls on a plate. Sprinkle with fresh berries, chia seeds, or shredded coconut for extra flavor and visual appeal.
  6. Serve Immediately:
    • These rolls are best enjoyed fresh. Serve as a quick breakfast or a nutritious snack.
