Ingredients
  

2 large flour tortillas (or whole grain for a healthier option)

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (substitute with almond butter for a delightful twist)

2 ripe bananas

2 tablespoons honey (optional, to enhance sweetness)

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

2 tablespoons shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)

A pinch of salt (to bring out flavors)

Chocolate chips or chopped nuts (optional, for an added crunch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Tortillas: Start by laying the flour tortillas flat on a clean, dry surface. If you prefer the tortillas to be warm and extra flexible, you can lightly heat them on a skillet for approximately 10 seconds on each side. This will make them easier to roll.

    Spread the Peanut Butter: Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, evenly spread about 1/4 cup of peanut butter across the surface of each tortilla. Aim to reach all the way to the edges to ensure every bite is packed with flavor.

      Add Sweetness and Flavor: Drizzle honey over the peanut butter layer if you're looking for extra sweetness. Then, sprinkle a pinch of salt and cinnamon over the top for an added depth of flavor. This is also the stage to add chocolate chips or chopped nuts if you'd like a bit more texture.

        Slice the Bananas: Peel the bananas and position them at one end of the tortilla. You can either leave the bananas whole for a beautiful look or slice them lengthwise if you prefer easier rolling and a well-distributed flavor.

          Roll It Up: Starting from the edge where the bananas are placed, carefully and tightly roll the tortilla away from you. Make sure to keep it snug to hold all the fillings inside. Continue rolling until you reach the opposite edge of the tortilla.

            Slice and Serve: With a sharp knife, cut the rolled tortilla into bite-sized pieces, about 1 to 2 inches thick. For an appealing presentation, consider sprinkling some shredded coconut on a serving plate and placing your roll-up slices on top of it.

              Enjoy: Serve these delicious peanut butter banana roll-ups immediately for a delightful snack, a quick breakfast option, or even as a healthy dessert!
