Ingredients

  • 2 slices of bread
  • 2 tbsp smooth peanut butter
  • ½ banana, thinly sliced
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Cut circles out of slices of bread using a cup.
  • Spread a thin layer of peanut butter in the center of the bread circle, leaving off a little space around the ends.
  • Add 3-4 thin slices of banana on one end of the bread.
  • Fold over the bread and press down the sides to seal.
  • Use a fork to seal down the edges on both sides.

Notes

  • You may use this same method to make DIY full-sized Uncrustables. Simply use two circles from two slices of bread for one sandwich and seal the entire circumference of the circle with a fork. If you prefer to use an actual mold, these sandwich molds are great to make different shapes!
  • If the sandwich is hard to close when you are pinching to seal it with your fingers, dab a little water on the edges to add a little stickiness.
