Start by peeling the chayote squash and cutting it into thin, banana-like slices.
Heat a small frying pan over medium heat and add the unsalted butter.
Once the butter has melted, add the chayote slices to the pan.
Sprinkle the monk fruit sweetener over the chayote slices and add the ground cinnamon, stirring gently to coat evenly.
Add the vanilla extract and cook the chayote for 3-4 minutes until they are tender and resemble caramelized banana slices.
As the chayote cooks, toast the almond flour bread slices until golden brown and crispy.
Spread 1 tablespoon of unsweetened peanut butter on each toasted slice of almond flour bread.
Top each slice with the cooked chayote slices, dividing them equally between the two slices.
Serve immediately and enjoy your keto-friendly twist on peanut butter banana toast!
