How to Make Pressed Elvis Rachael Ray

  1. Cook bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool.
  2. Once cool, tear each bacon slice in half.
  3. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a slit along the side of each roll, creating a pocket. Gently open the pocket, being careful not to tear the bread.
  4. Gently press each roll to flatten slightly.
  5. Peel and halve the bananas crosswise. Cut each banana half lengthwise into 3 equal slices.
  6. Spread 1 teaspoon of peanut butter on each banana slice. Drizzle ½ teaspoon of honey over each peanut buttered banana slice.
  7. Top each peanut butter and honey banana slice with a piece of bacon.
  8. Carefully stuff 3 banana stacks into each roll pocket.
  9. Gently press the assembled sandwiches to flatten slightly, ensuring they fit your toaster. Wipe off any excess filling from the outside of the rolls.
  10. Toast the sandwiches in a toaster, slit-side up, on the lightest setting until the bread is lightly browned and crusty, about 1 minute. (Alternatively, you can lightly press the sandwiches in a panini press.)
  11. Let the sandwiches cool slightly before slicing into wedges and serving. Enjoy!
