Peanut Butter and Banana Pockets

Chef Lauren Klatsky

Ingredients 

  • 3 Bananas Ripe
  • 3 Tablespoons Peanut Butter Creamy
  • teaspoons Honey
  • ¼ teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 4 Tortillas Whole wheat; 8-inch
  • Non-Stick Cooking Spray

Equipment

  • Stovetop
  • Large Skillet
  • Small Bowl

Instructions

  • Peel and slice bananas about ¼-inch thick.
  • In a small bowl, stir together peanut butter, honey, and cinnamon.
  • Lay tortillas flat. Spread about 1 Tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture on one half of each tortilla.
  • Divide banana slices evenly among tortillas. Arrange in a single layer over peanut butter mixture. Fold each tortilla in half.
  • Coat a large skillet with non-stick cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat.
  • Place folded tortillas in the skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, stir 2 Tablespoons of low-fat cream cheese into the peanut butter mixture in step 2. Let cheese come to room temperature before adding.
  • To serve as a dessert, add melted chocolate sauce. Or, sprinkle a few chocolate chips inside the tortilla while cooking.
