Place the peeled banana in the hot dog bun. Dress with toppings just as you would a hot dog.


This is a great idea to get fussy kids to eat breakfast.

Mr Breakfast would like to thank The Boss for this recipe.

Put the banana in the bun, smear peanut butter on the banana and put a line of raisins in the peanut butter and my son calls it 'Ants On A Log Hot Dog' and he LOVES it!

I think this is a great idea! Kids would love it. You could even sprinkle a few chocolate chips on top or whatever. Now this gets me thinking? Or put the jam over the banana instead of on the bread... that way it would look more like ketchup! Cool idea.

I am on Weight Watchers too. I figure with peanut butter and jelly, the hotdog bun and the banana, it should be around 8 points... not bad and kind of different and unique. I often slice banana and put it on my peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Why not on a hot dog bun? Neat idea!

I'm in New Zealand and doing weight watchers and this is an amazing filling low pro point breakfast for me using a roll, banana and I use a small amount of ricotta and a drizzle of maple syrup. Heaven for me.

Trixie, you could just use honey to make your daughter her "mustard". You could even color it will food coloring if you wanted.

My kids love it! We use whole wheat hot dog buns and a reduced fat peanut butter so it's really a good starter food for the day with protein, whole grains and banana vitamins. The only problem is that my daughter wants to put mustard on her hot dog. Yuck! Obviously, I don't let her. But, can anyone suggest a topping for this that might look like mustard??? That would make her day. Thanks for the recipe. Love the site.

Well, this doesn't sound that good. And a HOT DOG bun?! Um, no thanks.

Since this is a treat, I like to use white bread hot dog buns. As far a toppings... use ever one you mention all at once and WOW! Nutella + peanut butter = heaven!

This is really going to help. My kids only eat breakfast foods that look like lunch or desert foods. Your banana split idea with oatmeal scoops instead of ice cream is a favorite here. Love your site. I would love to see even more recipes for kids. Thanks! - Jenny
