Do you remember eating peanut butter and jelly, peanut butter and banana sandwiches, or even peanut butter with Nutella when you were a kid? Peanut butter seem to go with everything and we all loved the stuff.
It was a quick and easy snack/lunch and sometimes that's just what a mother needed- something quick and easy!
These simple banana roll ups on a corn tortilla or gluten-free wrap are perfect because you don't even need to cut the banana!! You eat it like a hot dog so even kids can make their own and they can have fun making this healthy sandwich.
They are great for a kids party too!
The delicious combination of bananas and peanut butter is already outrageous. But don't stop there, the possibilities in this tortilla are endless.

Banana Roll Ups
Ingredients:
2 gluten free tortillas or brown rice wraps ( I get them at Trader Joe or health store)
4 TBSP of nut butter ( I like organic peanut butter or organic almond butter)
1-2 bananas (depending on the size of your wrap and what it will hold)
4 TBSP whole fruit no sugar preserves ( any supermarket)
Directions
Spread wraps with nut butter and preserves. Place a whole or 1/2 of banana in center of each wrap. Roll up , hold it together with a toothpick and enjoy.
Variation:
Dip bananas in melted chocolate and chill in refrigerator before adding to the wrap ( now we are talking)

ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know that I made your Dutch Apple Pie pancake as my pick for the SRC this month. I loved it. Still can't figure out how to link it though.
ReplyDeleteYum! My family is a huge fan of crepes and these look fabulous! Great SRC choice :)
ReplyDeleteThat is delicious & easy. Life couldn't get any better.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for adding this awesome recipe to my October Recipe Roundup. That looks so yummy. When you have GF kids, you're always looking for new ideas!
ReplyDeleteI would love to return the favor and post one of my recipes, but I seem to be unable to. I linked back on my post, but still can't post a recipe. Do I have to be a member of the "secret recipe club"?
I have Wordpress, you have Blogger. Maybe that makes a difference?

ReplyDeleteThose look SO good!!! I had no idea you could get GF tortillas. French Meadow used to make a lovely rye bread with flax seeds and, I think, sunflower seeds; I haven't been able to find it for ages and ages, though. They make lovely products - I'll have to look for the tortillas now that I know they're out there!
ReplyDeleteOh yum yum! These do look good and so quick to make.
