Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Place the strips of streaky bacon on the bottom of a small pan, then turn the heat down to low. Cook slowly until the bacon becomes very crisp and all the fat has collected at the bottom of the pan. Remove it from the pan and set aside.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, butter the outer side of the bread and spread peanut butter on the inner side of both slices. Place one buttered slice in the pan so that the butter contacts the bacon fat, adding a small knob of butter if the bacon was not very fatty. On it lay the banana, then the bacon. Cover with the remaining slice of bread.

3. 3

   Cook over medium heat for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden. Remove, pat dry on a paper towel, cut in half and enjoy.
