Banana - Nutella Sandwich

 

This post would not have seen the light if not for the rainy and cloudy days we had for the past week. Cooking for this week's theme as planned earlier did not make any sense as there wasn't enough light to capture the images. This sandwich post from my drafts folder came to my rescue though it was not a part of my initial plan. 

Banana - Nutella sandwich is a mundane recipe to many folks, especially food bloggers but I wanted to record it on my blog anyway and so, here it is. The bread and the fruit have remained constant in this simple sandwich over the years in my home, though the spread used has changed from plain butter to nut butters to Nutella. The sweet chocolate-nut spread provides a yummy base for this fruit sandwich and definitely has a universal appeal unless one is staying away from the sugary spread for any reason. As the title suggests, it involves three ingredients, the bread, banana and Nutella spread and makes a quick and easy breakfast option or a lunchbox idea for kids.

I don't have the patience either to sit and make nut butters at home or bake the bread regularly even though I own a bread maker. I buy them from stores like many and so, is considering bread as one ingredient and Nutella as another though they individually are made using many ingredients. 

Ingredients:
Bread slices of your choice (I used wholewheat-honey bread.) 
Sweet chocolate-hazelnut spread / Nutella (Or any nut butter)
Banana, sliced into thin circles 

Method:
* Toast the bread slices and trim the edges, if particular about it.
* Spread the nutella on one side of the toasted slices.
* Arrange banana slices on the nutella side of a toasted bread slice. Cover it with another bread slice, with nutella side facing down.
* Repeat the steps with the remaining bread slices.
