A fun and easy break from the usual that kids will love. This recipe makes 1 sandwich, but it's easy enough to make 2, 3, or 4.

Ingredients

  • 2 slices raisin bread

  • peanut butter

  • ½ banana, sliced

  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chips, or to taste

  • ¼ cup ricotta cheese

  • 1 tablespoon white sugar

  • 1 dash ground cinnamon (Optional)

Directions

  1. Toast raisin bread in a toaster oven until lightly brown, 2 to 3 minutes.

  2. Spread peanut butter onto toasted bread. Top 1 slice with banana; top other slice with chocolate chips. Cover banana and chocolate chips with ricotta cheese. Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon on top.

  3. Toast in the toaster oven just until cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Sandwich slices together.

Cook's Notes:

Toaster waffles can be substituted for the raisin toast.

Cottage cheese can be used instead of ricotta cheese.

This sandwich can be made under a broiler instead of in a toaster oven if desired.
