Ingredients

- sunflower seed butter 2 tablespoons
Method
-
Prepare the banana.
Take one medium banana (about 118 grams). Peel the banana carefully by removing the skin from top to bottom.
Tip: Choose a banana that is ripe with some brown spots for the best sweetness. -
Slice the banana.
Place the peeled banana on a clean cutting board. Using a sharp knife, slice the banana into even rounds about 1/4 inch thick. This makes it easier to eat and mix with the sunflower seed butter.
Tip: Use a serrated knife if you have one for cleaner slices. -
Add sunflower seed butter.
Spoon 2 tablespoons (about 28 grams) of sunflower seed butter onto a small plate or bowl. You can either spread the butter on each banana slice or dip the slices directly into the butter as you eat.
Tip: If the sunflower seed butter is thick, stir it well before serving to make it creamy. -
Serve and enjoy.
Arrange the banana slices on a plate and serve with the sunflower seed butter. Enjoy this delicious and nutritious snack immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Tip: This snack pairs well with a glass of milk or your favorite plant-based milk.
Pro tips
- Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and softer texture.
- Warm the sunflower seed butter slightly if it is too thick to spread easily.
