Print Recipe

A quick and easy homemade snack featuring ripe bananas rolled in rice paper with creamy peanut butter, perfect for kids and adults alike.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe but firm bananas
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 6 rice paper wrappers
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flax seeds (optional)
  • A pinch of cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Pour warm water into a shallow bowl or large plate. Submerge one rice paper wrapper at a time for about 15-20 seconds until pliable but not too soft. Transfer to a dry surface and pat gently to remove excess moisture.
  2. Peel the bananas and cut each into halves or thirds, depending on desired sushi roll length. Slice each piece lengthwise to create a flat surface for rolling.
  3. Using a butter knife or small spreader, evenly coat the softened rice paper with about 1 tablespoon of creamy peanut butter, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
  4. Sprinkle chopped nuts, chia seeds, flax seeds, or a pinch of cinnamon over the peanut butter layer if desired.
  5. Lay a banana slice lengthwise on the edge closest to you, centered for an even roll.
  6. Gently but firmly roll the rice paper over the banana, tucking in the sides as you go to form a tight sushi-like roll.
  7. Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into bite-sized pieces about 1 to 1.5 inches thick. Wipe the knife clean between cuts for neat edges.
  8. Optionally, drizzle a little honey or maple syrup over the top or dust with cinnamon before serving.

Notes

Do not over-soak rice paper wrappers to avoid tearing. Use ripe but firm bananas for easier rolling. Keep rolls covered with a damp cloth and refrigerate if prepping ahead. For a cooler snack, chill rolls for 15 minutes before serving. Avoid microwaving to prevent chewy rice paper.
