Banana Sanger​

Banana sanger, anyone? Back in the day, nothing said school lunch quite like a banana sanger. You'd open your brown paper bag, and there it was—soft white bread, a ripe banana squished inside, maybe even a swipe of butter if Mum was feeling fancy. Some kids turned up their noses, but others still reckon it was the lunch of legends. These days, you’ll hear folks jazz it up with peanut butter, Vegemite (yep!), or a drizzle of condensed milk. One clever cook even grills it like a toastie—with cinnamon, no less.

I always used to eat them with just butter and sliced bananas. Now I don't mind them with an addition of a little honey.

Yes, sliced banana on white bread but with a little bit of sugar sprinkled on top of the banana. Beautiful.

I have a toasted multigrain banana sandwich for lunch every day with Bega salt and sugar reduced smooth peanut butter and Capilano Manuka 50 honey. Awesome taste. Crunchy.

Here's my current version a banana sanger, bread buttered on both sides sliced(not mashed) banana and some nutella and toast in the frypan..... so yummy... if you mash the banana it gets messy
