Fried Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich

Have you ever had a hankering for Elvis Presley’s favorite Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich? Let me tell you, this one is a game changer. You only need about 7 minutes to fry this incredibly golden, crisp, and ooey gooey peanut butter and banana sandwich!

When I say “fried”, I don’t mean that I deep fry this sandwich. Basically, it is lightly toasted in some maple butter for a sweet and savory, crispy crust! The way it turns out after being warmed up in the pan with the butter is literal perfection. I wouldn’t recommend skipping that part!
