Banana split panini (with a cherry on top)


Sometimes, you need a special treat--to help you celebrate, to pick you up when you're feeling down or just to make your day that much better. Whatever the occasion, the little-bit-messy and way-delicious dessert will cover all your bases. Trust us, this one's a soon-to-be favorite.  

Ingredients:

Serves 2

4 slices honey wheat bread

1 tbsp butter, melted

2 tbsp creamy peanut butter

1 banana, sliced

1⁄2 cup thinly sliced strawberries

1 tbsp liquid honey

1 tbsp chocolate syrup

2 tbsp whipped cream

2 maraschino cherries (with stems)

Directions:

Preheat Panini pan (or frying pan) to high. Brush one side of each bread slice with butter. Place two slices on a work surface, buttered side down, and spread with peanut butter. Evenly layer with banana and strawberries. Drizzle with honey and chocolate syrup. Cover with top halves, buttered side up, and press gently to pack.

Place sandwiches in a Panini press, close the top plate and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Alternatively, you can cook in a non-stick frying pan and “press” with something heavy on top, like a small saucepan or a brick wrapped in tin foil. Serve immediately, topped with whipped cream and cherries.
