If you enjoy the combination of peanut butter and banana, you will love this quick and simple treat. So, let’s take a look at how to make this peanut butter banana “sushi” roll recipe. We will also go through the list of ingredients you will need to make this recipe. There are three main ingredients, as well as a few optional add-ins.
How To Make Banana Sushi
To make vegan peanut butter banana sushi, there are just a few simple steps you have to follow. You first want to spread a layer of peanut butter on one side of your favorite flour tortilla. Next, you will want to roll a ripe banana into the tortilla. Then, cut the roll-up into “sushi” pieces of equal size. You can also add some peanut butter to the outside of your tortilla and then roll it in some granola, mini chocolate chips, or whatever else you’d like for a bit of crunch and extra flavor. The rolling method is similar to how you would roll and cut sushi, which is why this snack is often called banana “sushi”. Now that we have covered that, let’s go through the ingredients you’ll need to make this recipe.
Banana Sushi Roll – Ingredients
- Soft Flour Tortilla – The first ingredient you will need for your banana sushi roll is a soft flour tortilla. I used a whole wheat flour tortilla, but you can use whichever one you’d like. This ingredient is essential, and you want to make sure your tortilla is soft and easy to roll-up for the best “sushi” pieces.
- Creamy Peanut Butter – The second ingredient you will need for your banana sushi is the peanut butter. Alternatively, you can substitute another nut or seed butter if you prefer. You will want to spread a nice even layer down so that each sushi pieces has some delicious peanut butter flavor.
- Banana – The third key ingredient you will need for your sushi roll is the banana. You will want to peel it and roll it right up inside your tortilla. The banana adds sweetness and a ton of flavor to this recipe. The banana flavor combines perfectly with the peanut butter and the tortilla. Once you have the banana rolled up carefully inside the tortilla, you will want to use a sharp knife to cut the roll-up into “sushi” pieces.
- Optional Add-Ins – The optional add-ins include granola, chocolate chips, cereal pieces, or anything else that you might want to coat the exterior of your “sushi” pieces with. If you want to add any of the above to your “sushi” pieces, simply spread a bit of peanut butter on the exterior of the tortilla for each “sushi” piece. Then, roll the outside of each piece in your toppings. Again, if you don’t like peanut butter, you can substitute another nut or seed butter that you prefer for this step as well. This final step is optional, but it can definitely add extra flavor to your snack.
