Steps:
- Allow pita pockets to come to room temperature. You may want to throw them in the microwave for about 15 seconds to soften up a bit, as you will be folding them over like a taco.
- Combine pumpkin, peanut butter and cinnamon in a bowl.
- Spread half the mixture onto each of the pita rounds. Top each with bananas and drizzle with honey, then fold in half and serve!

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and texture. Overripe bananas will make the pitas too mushy.
- If you don't have peanut butter, you can substitute another nut butter such as almond butter or cashew butter.
- Feel free to add other fruits to the pitas, such as berries, apples, or peaches.
- If you want a more decadent pita, you can spread a layer of chocolate hazelnut spread on the inside before adding the fruit and peanut butter.
- These pitas are best served fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Fruity peanut butter pitas are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a variety of fruits and nut butters to choose from, the possibilities are endless. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy snack, give these pitas a try.
