You can pack the peanut butter in a plastic pastry bag, but a resealable plastic bag works just as well.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    1 Servings

Ingredients

1 banana
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 cup cornflakes
¼ cup raisins

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Slice ¼” off the end of the unpeeled banana and slide in a wooden ice-pop stick (when peeled, it will look like a banana pop). Spoon peanut butter into a small resealable plastic bag, squeezing it as far toward one corner as possible without cutting the bag. Twist to seal and tie with kitchen twine, trimming excess plastic to make a mini pastry bag. Place cornflakes and raisins in separate containers.

    Step 2

    To eat, peel banana. Snip the mini pastry bag and squeeze peanut butter onto banana, then dip into cornflakes and raisins.
