Ingredients

2 slices sourdough bread

2 tablespoons cream cheese

1 tablespoon honey

1 banana sliced

1 teaspoon brown sugar

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Instructions

1. Slice one ripe banana into even rounds. Soften the cream cheese if needed to make it easily spreadable.

2. Spread cream cheese onto one side of each bread slice.

3. Drizzle honey over the cream cheese.

4. Layer banana slices evenly across one slice.

5. Sprinkle with brown sugar.

6. Close the sandwich with the second slice, cream cheese side in.

7. Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.

8. Add the sandwich and cook 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown.

9. Press gently with a spatula while cooking for extra crispness.

10. Remove from skillet, let cool slightly, slice in half, and serve warm.

Notes

Use thick-cut bread to prevent sogginess when grilling.

Adjust the sweetness by increasing or reducing the honey.

For a flavor twist, sprinkle cinnamon or add a dash of nutmeg before grilling.
