Yield: 2 servings
Difficulty: Easy
Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 English muffin
• 1 small banana
• 3 tablespoons natural peanut butter (no added sugar)
• 2 teaspoons packed light or dark brown sugar

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat and Prep
   Heat the broiler to high and arrange a rack in the highest position. Meanwhile, split the English muffin and slice the banana into 1/4-inch-thick rounds.
2. Toast the Muffin
   Place the muffin halves directly on the oven rack and broil, flipping once, until toasted, about 5 minutes total.
3. Assemble and Broil
   Remove the muffin halves to a work surface. Divide the nut butter between the halves and spread it into an even layer. Evenly shingle the banana slices on the muffin halves and sprinkle with the brown sugar. Place the muffins on a baking sheet and broil until the sugar is browned and caramelized, about 3 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
