Preparation

Step 1

Heat a panini press.
Spread 2 Tbsp of almond butter onto two slices of bread. Divide the banana slices and chocolate shavings evenly between the two slices of bread. Top each with a remaining slice of bread.
Place sandwiches into the heated panini press and cook until the bread is nicely toasted and the chocolate is melted, about 3-5 minutes.
Serve dusted with powdered sugar, if desired.
