Presley-treat recipe


With a tasty combination of peanut butter and banana, it's easy to see why this was a favourite treat for Elvis Presley. The source is Australian Good Taste - June 2007 , Page 85.


Preparation time: 15 minutes; cooking time: 10 minutes


Ingredients (serves six):
6 thick slices white bread
60g butter, at room temperature
130g (1/2 cup) smooth peanut butter
3/4 cup mashed banana (about 3 small bananas)


Method
Spread half the bread slices with half the butter. Spread two tablespoons of peanut butter over each of the remaining bread slices, leaving a 1cm-wide border around the edges. Top with banana and the buttered bread, butter-side up. Heat two-thirds of the remaining butter in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat until foaming. Add two of the sandwiches, butter-side up, and cook for two minutes or until golden. Turn and cook for 2:00 or until golden. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining sandwich and butter. Cut the sandwiches in half diagonally and serve.
