Peanut Butter Banana And Date Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• Place 2 pieces of white bread in the toaster on a light setting. Heat skillet over medium heat with 2 tablespoons butter. While the bread is toasting, in a small bowl, using a fork mash the ripe banana until it reaches a smooth consistency. Using a knife, take both pieces of the toasted bread and spread 2 tablespoons of creamy peanut butter, topping 1 side with the mashed banana. Place 1 slice of bread on top of the other forming a sandwich. Place sandwich in hot skillet browning each side, flipping with a spatula, about 2 minutes per side. Take out of skillet, slice on a diagonal and serve on a plate.

Steps:

• If using fresh bananas, peel and slice them into 1/4-inch rounds. Place them on a plate and cover the plate with plastic wrap. Place the bananas in the freezer until frozen, about 2 hours.
• Combine the frozen bananas and vanilla extract if using in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the bananas turn into a creamy texture, about 1 minute.
• Arrange 4 of the cookies flat-side up and divide the banana nice cream between the cookies. Add a second cookie on top, pressing to seal together each sandwich.
• Immediately roll each ice cream sandwich in crushed peanuts or sprinkles if desired.
• Wrap each ice cream sandwich securely in plastic wrap and freeze it until solid, a minimum of 2 hours, then serve.

Steps:

• Ligtly toast the pita pockets and cut each in half crosswise.
• Spread the inside of each pita pocket with 2 tbsp of peanut butter. Sprinkle the chopped dates over the peanut butter, dividing them equally. Drizzle with honey. Divide the banana slices among the pita pockets.
• Close the sandwiches, pressing them slightly to adhere.

Steps:

• Cut the crusts off each slice of bread. Smear some peanut butter on 1 side of the bread slices. Put some of the sliced bananas on top of the peanut butter and cover with another slice of bread to make a sandwich.
• In a deep-fryer or heavy-bottomed pot, heat enough canola oil to come halfway up the sides of the pot, to 350 degrees F.Put the panko crumbs in a wide shallow bowl.
• Prepare the tempura batter according to the package directions. Dip a sandwich in the batter, then roll it in panko crumbs, and deep-fry until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches. Cool and drizzle with your favorite honey. Serve.

Steps:

• Set a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 6-cup loaf pan with nonstick vegetable spray. Line the bottom with a rectangle of waxed paper. Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together into a bowl; repeat 2 times. In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together on high speed for 15 seconds, to combine. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating until each is incorporated. Continue beating until light and fluffy, about 6 more minutes.
• In a bowl, mash the bananas until pasty. Stir in the sour cream and vanilla. With the mixer on its lowest setting, beat in 1/3 of the flour mixture. Beat in half of the banana mixture, then another 1/3 of the flour. Beat in the remaining banana mixture and the remaining flour. Spread the batter in the prepared pan and bake for 40 minutes or until the center springs back wen lightly pressed and a cake tester comes out clean. Set the pan on a rack to cool.
• Turn the cooled cake out of the pan. With a serrated knife, trim off the end crusts and cut the loaf into 1/2-inch slices. Peel the bananas and cut them into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Spread half the cake slices with the buttercream and layer on the banana slices. Place the remaining cake slices on top to form sandwiches. Cut the sandwiches in half and serve with ice cream and chocolate fudge sauce.
• Peanut Butter Buttercream: On medium speed, beat the butter and peanut butter in a mixing bowl until blended. Reduce the speed to low and gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar. Increase the speed to high and beat for 3 to 5 minutes, until smooth and fluffy.
• Chocolate Fudge Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the coffee, sugar and cocoa. Whisk in the corn syrup until all the sugar crystals are dissolved and the mixture is completely smooth. Place the chocolate and butter in a large, dry bowl or in the top of a double boiler set over barely simmering water. When the chocolate has melted, whisk in the coffee-cocoa mixture until smooth and blended. The sauce is best if left to ripen for a full day before serving. Store in a sealed container. This sauce will keep for 3 weeks in the refrigerator or 3 months in the freezer.

Steps:

• Blend the peanut butter with the banana until creamy. Spread the mixture over 5 slices of the bread. Top with the remaining bread.
• In a skillet melt enough butter to coat the bottom of the pan. Place the sandwiches in the butter and grill them until the bread is lightly toasted. Flip to grill the other side. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Spread peanut butter side to side, evenly on 1 side of each piece of bread. Slice banana in 3/4-inch slices and place on 1 piece of bread with peanut butter. Banana slices should be close together, and cover 1 side completely (usually 9 slices). Top with the other slice of bread.
• Heat butter in saute pan on medium heat. Place sandwich in pan and brown for approximately 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown. Add 2 ounces of butter to the pan and flip sandwich to other side and continue cooking for 2 to 5 minutes or until golden brown and peanut butter is melting. Cut into quarters and serve very hot.

Steps:

• Lightly toast pita breads; cut each in half crosswise. Open pita pockets. Spread 2 tablespoons peanut butter on 1 side of the inside of each pita pocket. Sprinkle chopped dates over peanut butter, dividing equally. Drizzle honey over. Divide banana slices among pita pockets; close sandwiches, pressing slightly to adhere.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the peanut butter, chia seeds and honey. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the peanut butter mixture over one side of 4 slices of bread. Top the peanut butter layer with a layer of sliced bananas. Sprinkle with cinnamon and flaked sea salt. Sandwich each with a second slice of bread. Cut in half diagonally and eat immediately or wrap for lunchboxes.

Steps:

• Spread peanut butter on one slice of bread.
• Mash banana and spread it on the other slice of bread.
• Put the slices together to form the sandwich.
• Melt butter (not the peanut butter) in a frying pan.
• Fry the sandwich in the pan on both sides until it's golden brown.

Steps:

• Place bread into toaster (any toaster will do). Once toasted, butter toast then extract peanut butter from jar (any brand will do) and apply onto toast. Then place bananas on top of peanut butter side by side, being careful not to overlap but to make sure the entire toast piece is covered. Lastly, EVER SO CAREFULLY, top with second piece of toast so it is symmetrically secured.
• NOTE: You may need perform this whole application using oven mitts as the toast may be hot.
• OPTION: To make sandwich decorative, slice sandwich in half. Or if you are feeling extra daring that day, slice into fourths! :).
• There you have it folks! A little tricky, but well worth it! ;).
