These ate delicious!! . I've been making banana sandwiches for years and never thought about using banana bread for the bread slices. I always used whole wheat bread. It was great with the banana bread.

It is missing bacon. I had an Elvis special at a pub that Elvis visited in Wiesbaden Germany that made then for him made with Bauernbrot,bananas, peanut butter and bacon.
