Servings: 2
Ingredients:
- 2 slices of sourdough bread
- 2 young, but not green, bananas
- 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla (or alternatively you can use 2 tablespoons of ‘Golden Glow’ Honey Butter)

Method:
- Heat a pan over medium heat.

- Slice the bananas lengthwise and place them face down in the pan. Cook for 90 seconds or until softened and golden brown, then flip and cook the other side for another 90 second.
- While the bananas are caramelising, toast the slices of sourdough bread.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of Verena’s nut butter on each slice of toast.
- Once the bananas are ready, gently place them on top of the nut butter-covered toast.
- Generously sprinkle with granola for added crunch.
Enjoy this decadent treat as a luxurious breakfast or a delightful snack, perfectly complemented by a fresh fruit salad or a bowl of plain yoghurt.
