- Grill the Sandwich:
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, swirling the pan to coat the surface.
- Carefully place the sandwich in the skillet. Grill for about 2-3 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
- Carefully flip the sandwich with a spatula and grill the other side for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and the peanut butter starts to melt.
- If you prefer a press-down effect, you can gently press down on the sandwich with the spatula while it cooks, but be careful not to squeeze the ingredients out.
- Serve:
- Once both sides of the sandwich are nicely grilled, remove it from the skillet and place it on a cutting board.
- Let it cool for a minute, then cut it in half or quarters, depending on your preference.
- Serve warm for the best experience.
Tips:
- For an extra decadent treat, you can add a layer of Nutella or sprinkle some mini chocolate chips inside the sandwich before grilling.
- Using ripe bananas is key for the best flavor and texture. They should be sweet and slightly soft.
- If you’re using a non-stick skillet, you can reduce the amount of butter or even grill the sandwich without it, though butter adds a nice flavor and helps achieve a crispy exterior.
