I believe this sandwich must be on the menu in heaven. This Grilled Neapolitan Waffle Sandwich with Nutella, strawberries, bananas & peanut butter is sure to pamper all your taste buds.
There’s no secret that I truly love food. I have to work at not eating so much. So typically for lunch, especially while the kids are in school, I’ll prepare a fun lunch for myself. The thing that puts this sandwich over the top, in my opinion is the grilled waffle itself. I prepare a Leggo my Eggo waffle like you would normally do (in the toaster) but after that, I place it in a cast iron skillet to give it a rich grilled smokey flavor. If you’ve been around this blog for a while, than you know I love to cook with a cast iron skillet!
The recipe is so simple, but I must add you do need some type of skewer sticks or long toothpicks to hold the sandwich together before devouring, um…I mean eating it. 😉
Ingredients
- 2 Frozen Waffles, any kind - I used multi-grain
- 5-6 sliced Strawberries
- 1 sliced Banana
- Nutella to spread
- Peanut Butter to spread
Instructions
- Prepare your waffle as recommended on the back of the waffle box.
- Spread Nutella on one side of each waffle.
- On top of the Nutella spread Peanut Butter
- In a skillet (preferably a cast iron skillet) place each waffle (plain side down) in skillet over medium heat. Then on one side place your strawberries and on the other waffle place your bananas.
- Once your waffles are grilled (a little brown on each side, and your spreads are starting to melt) place your waffles on a plate and form as a sandwich, using skewer sticks to hold in place.
It can get kinda messy, depending on how much Nutella and Peanut Butter you add, so be prepared with some napkins! But of course, in my opinion the more the merrier!
From start to finish this sandwich takes about 10 minutes to prepare. While I’m toasting the waffles & slicing the fruit, I am already pre-heating my skillet so it is nice and warm by the time I place my waffle in it to start the grilling.
I added some washi tape to the end of my skewer stick to make them a little more fun. Have I ever told you how much I love to add a little craft to my food??? I really, really do. I truly believe it helps things taste even better! Ha!
I highly recommend a tall glass of ice cold milk to go with this sandwich! All of it together is truly divine!
