Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by peeling your ripe banana and placing it in a bowl. Using a fork, mash the banana thoroughly until it reaches a smooth, creamy consistency.
  2. If your natural peanut butter is a bit thick, microwave it for about 15 seconds to soften it up. Once it’s smooth, combine it with your mashed banana in the bowl and stir well until blended.
  3. Spread the banana-peanut butter mixture generously over your rice cakes or toast, ensuring an even layer that covers the entire base.
  4. Drizzle your desired amount of honey or maple syrup over the top of your spread. Sprinkle chia seeds on top for an extra crunch.
  5. Your Peanut Butter Banana Smash is now ready to be served! Enjoy it immediately for a fresh start!
