Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 large banana
  • 2 Tablespoons nut butter or seed butter of choice
  • 1 whole wheat or regular tortilla

Optional Toppings

  • Honey
  • Chia seeds
  • Shredded coconut
  • Mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Peel Banana: Peel the large banana completely and set it aside on a clean surface.
  2. Spread Nut Butter: Lay the whole wheat or regular tortilla flat on a clean surface. Evenly spread 2 tablespoons of your preferred nut or seed butter over the entire surface of the tortilla, ensuring a smooth, generous layer.
  3. Add Banana: Place the peeled banana along one edge of the tortilla, ready to be rolled.
  4. Roll Tortilla: Carefully roll the tortilla tightly around the banana, using the nut butter as an adhesive to help seal the wrap securely.
  5. Cut: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled tortilla and banana into 1-inch thick pieces, creating sushi roll-like slices.
  6. Serve: Arrange the banana sushi roll pieces neatly on a plate. Optionally, drizzle honey or sprinkle chia seeds, shredded coconut, or mini chocolate chips on top for added flavor and texture.
  7. Store: If you have any leftovers, place them in an airtight container and refrigerate. Consume within 1 day for best freshness.

Notes

  • Use any nut or seed butter such as almond, peanut, cashew, sunflower seed, or tahini to suit your preferences or dietary needs.
  • For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free tortilla.
  • Adding the optional toppings enhances flavor but can be omitted for a simpler snack.
  • This recipe is best eaten fresh but can be refrigerated for up to one day.
  • Use a sharp knife to ensure clean sushi-style slices without squashing the roll.
  • Perfect for a quick breakfast, snack, or kid-friendly lunchbox treat.
