Ingredients

• 1 banana
• 1 teaspoon of pure almond butter
• 6 raisins (roughly)
• 6 cocktails sticks (roughly)
• A piece of your finest china

Method

Peel and slice the banana. Spread a good layer of almond butter on the top side of half the slices, and then sandwich another slice on top. Arrange the little towers spaciously on your chosen dish.

Pierce each raisin with a cocktail stick, and plunge these into the nutty banana towers. The raisins should sit directly on the top slice and, if the slices are the right thickness, the stick will stand firmly in each one.

Present with great aplomb to the hungry crowds waiting with anticipation outside the kitchen door.

Alternatives …

• Any berry would work well instead of raisins.
• Other nut butters, such as hazelnut, cashew, or even peanut butter, would be equally good, as long as they are 100% nut butter with no added salt or sugar.
