Preparation

1 Slice bread 2 Slice banana in quarters 3 Spread almond butter on both sides (don't be shy!) 4 Place bananas on one side of the bread, ensuring your monkey is in fact in the middle : ) 5 Place on a preheated med-high grill (no need to grease the grill due to the high butter content of the bread) 6 Grill 3-5 minutes depending on the thickness of the bread 7 Cut in half and enjoy!

About


I knew I had to do a peanut butter sandwich. I just had to jazz it up TPPB style! The question was how? Then it hit me..almond butter and chocolate! As I was trying to figure out a cutesy name for the sandwich, it dawned on me: add banana! That's how "Monkey in the Middle" was born.
