Elvis Presley's Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich

4 ounces whole peanut butter
2 slices Texas Toast or 1/2-inch thick bread
1 whole ripe banana
4 ounces whole butter

Spread peanut butter side to side, evenly on 1 side of each piece of bread. Slice banana in 3/4-inch slices and place on 1 piece of bread with peanut butter. Banana slices should be close together, and cover 1 side completely (usually 9 slices). Top with the other slice of bread.
Heat butter in sauté pan on medium heat. Place sandwich in pan and brown for approximately 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown. Add 2 ounces of butter to the pan and flip sandwich to other side and continue cooking for 2 to 5 minutes or until golden brown and peanut butter is melting. Cut into quarters and serve very hot.
Yield: 1 serving
 
This sounds really good. I wonder if this had anything to do with his weight gain over the years?
 
He was a down-home boy! He loved whatever was not good for you!

But he really appreciated foods like this - they were his comfort foods. Even if he did have a little too much "comfort"!
