Peanut Butter Banana Rollups

Ingredients

A normal batch of peanut butter banana rollups uses the ingredients below for makes 2 rollups, about 8 pinwheels.

• 2 soft flour tortillas (8-inch)
• 1/4 cup peanut butter
• 2 bananas
• 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

How to Make It

Make the slow piece of peanut butter banana rollups early, then keep the fast finish for the hungry hour.

• Lay each tortilla flat and spread peanut butter to the edges in a thin, even layer.
• Drizzle a little honey over the peanut butter and dust with cinnamon if you want it.
• Set a whole peeled banana near one edge of each tortilla.
• Roll the tortilla tightly around the banana, then slice into pinwheels about an inch thick.

Make It Work for Picky Kids

Some kids want the rollup whole, not sliced into circles that show the swirl, so ask first.

• Leave one rollup uncut and hand it over like a wrap
• Skip the cinnamon and honey for a kid who likes plain peanut butter and banana
• Use sunflower seed butter if peanuts are off the table

Pack or Store

These hold their shape well, which makes them a solid car snack.

• Wrap each rollup in foil before slicing so it stays rolled in the bag
• Pack within a few hours so the banana does not get mushy
• Keep them cool, since warm peanut butter slides out
• Serve with: a glass of milk, apple slices

Parent Tip

A slightly underripe banana holds its shape and slices cleaner than a soft, spotty one.
