Ingredients

8 slices good quality white bread
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup peanut butter, smooth or crunchy
1/2 cup grape jelly
2 ripe bananas, sliced

Directions

Butter the bread slices on 1 side with butter and place them butter side down. Spread 4 slices with peanut butter and top with the banana slices. Spread the remaining slices with jelly and put them, jelly side down, on top of the bananas. Press them gently to flatten them slightly.

Place each sandwich on a preheated panini press and grill until the bread is toasted, about 5 minutes. Alternately, preheat a dry cast iron or non stick pan. Place the sandwich in the pan and weight it down with another pan or a clean brick wrapped in foil. Grill 5 minutes, turn the sandwich over, re-weight it, and grill for another 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Decadent and rich....just like a great dessert!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I am in part of a blogging group called Tyer Florence Fridays. We chose one Tyler dish every week and then blog about it... each Friday. We blog about all kinds of Tyler recipes: main courses, desserts, side dishes, etc. Sometimes we get busy or we don't have anything on hand and this is a good recipe for those times. In my case, I had just made Tyler's wonderful white bread and decided to also make this sandwich. It was decadent, rich, sinful and tasted like a dessert to me. It was superdelicous!! I wondered about the need to put a brick or heavy pan on top of the sandwich while cooking, but it was well worthwhile. The bread developed an even crust and the color was amazing. Well worth it for a snack, sandwich for the kids, dessert. It was really good and will be made again!!Read more
