For Raisin Peanut Butter Griddlers, smear California Raisin Peanut Butter Spread on whole wheat bread, top with banana slices and brown in a skillet. For Raisin Peanut Butter Tortilla Roll-Ups, wrap the spread and banana slices in a whole wheat tortilla and serve in pinwheel slices.
(Tip: Just do the prep work and have kids assemble and roll the wraps.)
