HOW TO MAKE BANANA SHORTBREAD COOKIES
-
STEP 1
Use a round cookie cutter or a glass (diameter: approx. 5 cm) to cut some circles out of the slices of white bread.
-
STEP 2
Lightly brown both sides of each white bread circle in a pan with a little bit of fat and let them cool down on a rack.
-
STEP 3
Spread Nutella® on the circles, decorate each one with two slices of banana and sprinkle them with the minced almonds (those who wish to do so can lightly brown the almonds first).
Finally, arrange the decorated cookies on a serving plate and present them to your loved ones for a specially-baked treat.
