Peanut Butter, Banana & Bacon Goodness (Cletus Style!)
Fresh from the skillet — new cookin' straight from the holler!
The King of Rock 'n' Roll knew how to eat! Elvis Presley's legendary sandwich combines creamy peanut butter, sweet banana slices, and crispy bacon between buttery toasted bread. Sweet, salty, crunchy, and downright sinful — the ultimate anytime indulgence.
2–3 tablespoons peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
1 ripe banana, sliced
4–6 slices bacon, cooked crispy
2 slices bread (thick white works great)
Butter (softened, for the outside)
Optional: drizzle of honey or pinch of cinnamon
1. Spread a generous layer of peanut butter on one side of each bread slice.
2. On one slice, layer the sliced banana evenly. Top with crispy bacon strips. Drizzle honey if using.
3. Spread softened butter on the outside of both bread slices.
4. Place one buttered side down in a hot skillet over medium heat.
5. Add the filling, then top with the second slice (buttered side up).
6. Cook 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy, and the peanut butter gets warm and melty.
Pro Tip from Cletus: Use ripe bananas for extra sweetness and thick-cut white bread. Serve hot with a cold glass of milk or sweet tea!
