Ingredients
Scale
Bread and Butter
- 2 slices of bread (any type)
- Butter for spreading
Fillings
- 1 ripe banana, sliced
- Honey for drizzling
- 2 slices of cheese (such as cheddar or Swiss)
Instructions
- Preheat the skillet: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat to prepare for grilling the sandwich evenly.
- Butter the bread: Spread softened butter on one side of each slice of bread to ensure a golden crispy exterior when cooked.
- Assemble the sandwich: Place one slice of bread butter-side down onto the skillet, then layer with sliced bananas, drizzle honey evenly over the banana slices, and top with cheese slices. Cover with the second slice of bread, butter-side up.
- Grill the sandwich: Cook the sandwich for 2-3 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted thoroughly.
- Serve: Remove the sandwich from heat, let it cool slightly for about a minute, slice it in half, and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For best results, use ripe bananas that are soft but not overly mushy.
- Choose a cheese that melts well such as cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella.
- You can adjust the amount of honey based on your preferred sweetness.
- Optional: Add a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the sandwich warm and gooey.
