Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas

1/2 cup almond butter (choose smooth or crunchy based on your preference)

4 slices of whole grain bread (substitute with gluten-free bread for a gluten-free option)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, for extra flavor)

1/4 cup granola (optional, for an extra crunch)

A pinch of salt (to taste)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bananas: Begin by peeling the bananas. Slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds. These slices will serve as the sweet filling for your sandwiches.

    Prepare the Almond Butter Mix: In a small mixing bowl, combine the almond butter, honey or maple syrup (if desired), and ground cinnamon. Stir the mixture until it achieves a smooth, unified consistency.

      Assemble the Sandwiches:

        - Take one slice of bread and generously spread a layer of the prepared almond butter mixture over it.

          - Arrange a layer of banana slices on top of the almond butter.

            - If using, sprinkle some granola over the bananas for a delightful crunch.

              - Place another slice of bread on top to create a complete sandwich.

                - Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients until you have assembled four delicious sandwiches.

                  Slice and Arrange for Freezing: Cut each sandwich diagonally into halves or quarters, depending on how you prefer to serve them. Lay the sandwich pieces out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are spaced apart to avoid sticking.

                    Freeze the Sandwiches: Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer. Allow the sandwiches to freeze for approximately 2 hours, or until they are completely solid.

                      Serve and Enjoy: After freezing, you can store the sandwiches in a zip-lock bag for easy access. Enjoy them straight from the freezer for a refreshing and creamy snack, or let them rest at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before indulging in their deliciousness!
