Today I am making banana sushi, a simple afternoon snack coated with tahini and rolled in crunchy white and black sesame seeds. These banana makis are ready in just 10 minutes with zero cooking required: simply coat the fruit, roll it in seeds, and slice into rounds. I love how a few humble ingredients turn into such an eye-catching treat.
The tahini gives the sesame seeds something to cling to, and its nutty richness pairs so well with the natural sweetness of the banana. To slice them cleanly without squishing, I recommend choosing a banana that is ripe but still firm. One banana makes a lovely individual snack, or you can easily slice it up to share.
