Ingredients
- Mixed nuts 1 oz
- Banana 1 medium
Method
-
Prepare the banana.
Wash the banana under running water to clean the peel. Then, carefully peel the banana from the stem end.
Tip: Peeling from the bottom end can be easier if the banana is very ripe. -
Portion the mixed nuts.
Measure out 1 ounce of mixed nuts using a kitchen scale or a measuring cup. If you don't have these tools, approximately a small handful works well.
Tip: If you prefer smaller pieces, you can roughly chop the nuts before eating. -
Serve and enjoy.
Place the peeled banana on a plate and serve the mixed nuts alongside. You can eat the banana in slices or whole, alternating bites with nuts for a satisfying snack.
Tip: For extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on the banana.
Pro tips
- If you want to add more texture, lightly toast the mixed nuts in a dry pan over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- To keep nuts fresh longer, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
