Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole grain bread
- 4 tablespoons Peanut butter (natural, unsweetened)
- 2 teaspoons Chia seeds
- 2 teaspoons Flaxseeds (ground)
- 1 large Banana
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.25 teaspoons Cinnamon powder
- 0.5 cups Mixed berries (optional)
Instructions
Lay the slices of whole grain bread on a clean surface or cutting board.
Spread 2 tablespoons of natural peanut butter evenly over each of two slices of bread.
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of chia seeds and 1 teaspoon of ground flaxseeds over the peanut butter on each slice.
Peel the banana and slice it into thin, even rounds. Arrange half of the banana slices on top of the peanut butter layer on each slice of bread.
Drizzle half a teaspoon of honey over the bananas on each slice of bread.
Lightly sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon powder over the assembled ingredients for added flavor.
If using mixed berries, evenly distribute 1/4 cup of berries on top of the banana slices for each sandwich.
Place the remaining slices of bread on top of each prepared slice to create two sandwiches.
Gently press down on each sandwich to hold the ingredients together.
Serve immediately or wrap tightly in parchment paper for an on-the-go snack.
