I have been craving peanut butter lately. Not sure why, but I am fervently embracing it. So given this need, today's healthy snack incorporates peanut butter.
Though I still haven't embraced Elvis' favorite, peanut butter and banana sandwich, I love the combination of peanut butter and banana (almost as much as I love the combination of peanut butter and pumpkin).
This recipe includes only 5 ingredients.
You can substitute your favorite nut butter for the peanut butter. Make sure your granola is free of high fructose corn syrup, and try to find one low in sugars. (I will post my pumpkin granola recipe later in the week for you to make - healthy and delicious)!
Ingredients:
1 banana
1/2 cup peanut or nut butter
1 cup granola
1 tbsp. ground flax seed
1 tbsp. chia seeds
Mash your banana in a bowl. Add the peanut butter and mix until combined. Add granola, flax and chia. Stir until combined. Place on a sheet of wax paper and roll out into the shape of a hot dog.
Place the rolled mix and wax paper into the freezer for 90 minutes. (I store mine in the freezer and
slice off a piece in the morning and take it to work for a snack). Slice off a 1-2 inch piece as a snack.
Peel off wax paper and enjoy!
A healthy snack, easy to make, and easy to take on the go. Hope you enjoy!
