1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 whole wheat pita bread, sliced in half (making two round circles)

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.
