The Elvis Presley Sandwich: A Nostalgic Bite of Rock ‘n’ Roll

- Category: lunch
- Method: Pan-Frying
- Cuisine: Southern, American
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices of white bread (or try brioche for a softer vibe)
- 2–3 tablespoons peanut butter (creamy is classic, but chunky works too)
- 1 banana, sliced
- 2–3 slices of cooked bacon (optional but recommended)
- 1–2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Spread the Love: Slather peanut butter generously on one side of each bread slice.
- Banana Time: Lay banana slices evenly over the peanut butter on one slice.
- Bring Home the Bacon: Add crispy bacon strips on top of the bananas. (Skip this if you’re keeping it vegetarian.)
- Sandwich It: Place the other slice of bread on top, peanut butter side down.
- Fry It Up: Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once melted, place the sandwich in and fry until golden brown, about 2–3 minutes per side.
- Serve Warm: Slice diagonally (because it just tastes better that way), and dig in while it’s hot and melty.
