Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas

1/2 cup almond butter (smooth or crunchy, as preferred)

4 slices of whole grain bread (or gluten-free bread for a gluten-free version)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for added flavor)

1/4 cup granola (optional, for extra crunch)

A pinch of salt (to taste)

Instructions
 

Preparation of Bananas: Start by peeling the bananas and slicing them into 1/2-inch thick rounds. This will create the filling for your sandwiches.

    Mix Almond Butter: In a small bowl, combine almond butter with honey or maple syrup (if using) and cinnamon. Stir until smooth and well combined.

      Assemble Sandwiches:

        - Spread a generous layer of the almond butter mix on one slice of bread.

          - Place a layer of banana slices on top of the almond butter.

            - If you're using granola, sprinkle a little over the bananas for an added crunch.

              - Top with another slice of bread to make a sandwich. Repeat for the remaining ingredients until you have four sandwiches prepared.

                Slice and Freeze:

                  - Cut each sandwich diagonally into halves or quarters, depending on your preference for serving sizes.

                    - Arrange the pieces on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching to prevent sticking.

                      Freeze the Sandwiches: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 2 hours, or until the sandwiches are completely frozen.

                        Serve and Enjoy: Once frozen, you can store the sandwiches in a zip-lock bag for easy grabbing. Enjoy them directly from the freezer for a cool and creamy snack, or let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before indulging!
