Ingredients

4 pieces Flour tortillas
0.5 cup Peanut butter (or any nut/seed butter alternative)
2 medium Bananas
2 tablespoons Honey (optional)
0.25 cup Mini chocolate chips or raisins

Directions

Step 1

Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface or plate.

Step 2

Spread 2 tablespoons of peanut butter evenly across the surface of the tortilla, leaving a small margin around the edges.

Step 3

Peel a banana and place it near the edge of the tortilla. Roll the tortilla around the banana tightly to form a 'rug'.

Step 4

Drizzle a small amount of honey lengthwise along the rolled tortilla, if desired, for extra sweetness.

Step 5

Sprinkle mini chocolate chips or raisins over the honey so that they resemble 'bugs' stuck to the rug.

Step 6

Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and bananas.

Step 7

Cut each roll into 1-inch slices using a sharp knife, creating bite-sized rolls with visible 'bugs'.

Step 8

Arrange on a serving platter and serve immediately, or wrap in plastic wrap to keep for later.
