Main Ingredients- 2 slices of bread (choose your favorite kind)
- 1/2 banana (select one that isn’t too ripe)
- 1-2 tsp jam (your favorite flavor, e.g., strawberry or blueberry)
- 1 tsp grapeseed oil or olive oil (for brushing the outside of the bread)
- 2 slices of cheese (cheddar or mozzarella recommended)
- 2-3 tbsp peanut butter (adjust amount to your liking)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
For a cleaner cooking experience in your air fryer, place dried tangerine peels on the bottom of the air fryer basket. (You can also use parchment paper if tangerine peels are unavailable.)
Step 2
Lightly brush one side of a slice of bread with grapeseed oil. Place the bread oil-side down onto the bottom of the air fryer basket.
Step 3
If using spinach, wash it thoroughly, pat it dry, and then thinly julienne two leaves. Have your jam and cheese ready.
Step 4
Spread your chosen jam (e.g., blueberry jam) evenly over the bread. Adjust the amount of jam to your preference.
Step 5
Arrange the julienned spinach leaves neatly on top of the jam.
Step 6
Place one slice of cheese over the spinach. The melting cheese will help hold the ingredients together.
Step 7
Prepare half a banana by slicing it into appropriate pieces, about 0.5 cm thick. Be careful not to slice them too thinly, as they might fall apart.
Step 8
Arrange the sliced banana pieces on top of the cheese. Place the remaining slice of cheese over the banana.
Step 9
On the other slice of bread, first spread a thin layer of jam, then generously spread the peanut butter evenly. Ensuring good coverage of peanut butter will enhance the flavor! Place this slice on top of the banana and cheese.
Step 10
Brush the top of the toast with grapeseed oil. This will help it become extra crispy during air frying.
Step 11
Preheat your air fryer to 170℃ (338℉).
Step 12
Place the assembled toast into the preheated air fryer and cook for 7 minutes. (Adjust cooking time based on your air fryer’s specifications. Cook until the top is golden brown!)
Step 13
Carefully remove the crispy, perfectly cooked banana peanut butter toast. Enjoy immediately while warm for the best gooey, melted cheese experience! 😋
