I have no idea at all why I made this sandwich. I thought so little of doing it, that I forgot to take a picture of it. So – in the interest of journalistic integrity, I am going to have to make … and eat… another of my twisted take on The King’s favorite sandwich.

If you aren’t familiar, the King himself, Elvis Presley was fond of a sandwich combining peanut butter and bananas and fried in butter to make it extra molten peanut-buttery-crispy good.  I got a wild hair today to try this on my own, with a twist. I added honey, and slathered the yummy Orowheat Oat Nut bread with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter and fried it up to a crispy golden brown.

I have to say… at first taste, I was wondering just what the hell I was thinking… then… it started growing on me. It had that awesome sweet and salty combination that is just awesome. I think the next time I try this I will add bacon. After all – bacon just rocks in pretty much anything and looking at the sweet and salty scale on this recipe, the bananas + the honey outweigh the salty peanut butter 2 to 1. That’s just not fair.

Here’s the recipe:

• 2 slices bread of your choice
• Peanut Butter to taste
• 1 Banana – sliced
• Honey to taste
• I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter for frying

Spread Peanut butter on one half of bread, and drizzle and spread honey on other slice. Add a layer of sliced banana’s on top and combine. Fry over medium heat in ICBINB until crispy to your liking.

Think of the King while you enjoy.

What the hell was I thinking?
