Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb thick-cut bacon
  • 4 tablespoons butter, room temperature
  • ¼ cup packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup pecans, chopped
  • ½ cup walnuts, chopped
  • 1 piece lavash bread
  • 4 medium bananas, sliced into ½-inch wheels
  • Chocolate hazelnut spread

Instructions

Cook and Prepare Bacon

  1. Cook bacon until crispy in a skillet or oven. Drain on paper towels, then chop into bite-sized pieces.

Mix Nut Topping

  1. In a bowl, mix softened butter and brown sugar until well combined. Stir in chopped pecans and walnuts.

Assemble Crunch

  1. Spread chocolate hazelnut spread evenly over the lavash bread.
  2. Layer the banana slices evenly over the chocolate spread.
  3. Sprinkle the nut-butter-sugar mixture over the bananas.
  4. Top everything with chopped crispy bacon pieces.

Serve

  1. Serve immediately for a warm crunch, or chill slightly before slicing and serving for a firmer texture.

Notes

  • Lavash bread offers a light, crisp base, but you can substitute with flatbread or pita if needed.
  • For a nut-free version, simply omit the pecans and walnuts or replace with toasted seeds.
  • Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and the best texture.
  • This dish balances sweet and salty beautifully—perfect for brunch or an indulgent snack!
