Sandwich and Wrap Recipes
The Lisa Marie
A more elaborate version of Elvis's favorite peanut butter and banana sandwich!
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 8 slices bacon
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons maple syrup
- 4 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
- 4 thick slices firm white bread
- 8 tablespoons peanut butter
- 4 (1 1/2 ounce) slices Wisconsin Butterkäse cheese
- 2 or 3 bananas, sliced or chunked
- 1 cup hot fudge or chocolate sauce
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place bacon slices on baking sheet pan with sides (jelly roll pan) and bake until lightly browned and starting to crisp, about 5 to 6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix brown sugar and maple syrup until smooth. Brush hot bacon slices with mixture, using a pastry brush. Return to oven for another 5 to 6 minutes, turning once and being careful not to burn sugar. Remove to cooling rack and let cool.
- Heat griddle or sauté pan over medium heat. Butter one side of bread slices. Spread other side with peanut butter. Top each slice, peanut butter-side up, with 1 Butterkäse slice and some banana slices. Place butter-side down on griddle and grill until sandwich bread bottoms are light golden brown.
- Meanwhile, heat chocolate sauce until warm. Dip each slice of bacon into warm chocolate to cover half of strip and place over bananas.
- To serve, drizzle sandwiches with additional chocolate sauce.
