Ingredients
- Banana - 2 whole
- Sandwich bread - 2 slice
- Almonds - 1/4 cup
Instructions
- 1Toast the almonds in a dry skillet, shaking the pan occasionally, until they are fragrant and lightly browned; transfer to a plate to cool so they stay crisp.
- 2Toast the bread until it is golden brown and crispy, either in a toaster or under the broiler, then transfer the slices to a plate.
- 3Mash the bananas in a bowl with a fork until mostly smooth; mash them only when you are ready to eat to prevent them from darkening.
- 4Spread the mashed banana evenly over the warm toast so it soaks in a little and becomes nicely creamy.
- 5Sprinkle the toasted almonds over the banana-topped toast and serve at once so the bread stays crisp.
