Ingredients- 2 slices Rye Bread
- 2-3 Tbsp Ricotta Cheese
- 2-3 Tbsp Peanut Butter
- 1 ripe Banana
- Fresh Dill, a small amount (optional)
- 1 Tbsp Roasted Sunflower Seeds
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your rye bread. Slice the bread to your preferred thickness. Considering you’ll be adding plenty of banana and toppings, it’s best to aim for about 1.5-2cm thickness. Toasting the bread beforehand will enhance the flavor.
Step 2
On one slice of the prepared rye bread, generously spread the ricotta cheese. Ensure it’s evenly coated across the entire surface for a creamy base.
Step 3
Peel the ripe banana and slice it into approximately 0.5cm thick rounds. Arrange the banana slices attractively over the ricotta cheese, overlapping them slightly.
Step 4
Now, let’s add some flavor and texture. Sprinkle the roasted sunflower seeds over the banana slices for a delightful crunch. Finally, lightly garnish with fresh dill. Your ricotta cheese version of the open sandwich is now complete!
Step 5
Next, let’s make the peanut butter version. On another slice of rye bread, spread a generous amount of peanut butter. Its natural nutty flavor will add depth to the sandwich.
Step 6
Following the same method, arrange the banana slices attractively on top of the peanut butter. Sprinkle with roasted sunflower seeds and finish with a touch of fresh dill. The peanut butter version of the rye banana open sandwich is easily done! For an extra touch of sweetness, consider drizzling a little honey or maple syrup.
