Easy Vegan Peanut Butter & Banana Turnovers with Cinnamon Maple Yogurt Sauce

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Servings: 1

Ingredients
  

Turnovers:
  • 1 teaspoon unrefined coconut oil
  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • 3 fresh roll wrappers (I use Bahn Trang Spring Roll Skins)
  • 3 tablespoons creamy salted peanut butter (no added oil or sugar)
  • 15 thin slices banana
  • 3/4 teaspoon pure maple syrup
  • 6 dashes ground cinnamon
Yogurt Sauce:
  • 1/3 cup plain unsweetened vegan yogurt (I used Kite Hill Greek style, So Delicious coconut yogurt is great too)
  • 1 teaspoon pure maple syrup, or to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 4 dashes ground cinnamon
Toppings:
  • Pure maple syrup, for drizzling
  • Roughly chopped salted peanuts, for sprinkling

Method
 

  1. Prepare the yogurt sauce. In a medium-small bowl whisk the yogurt, 1 teaspoon maple syrup, vanilla and 4 dashes of cinnamon until well combined. Taste and adjust to your liking. Set aside.
  2. For the turnovers, heat a medium-large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the coconut oil and swirl to evenly coat, adding more oil if necessary.
  3. While the pan is heating, pour the warm water into a large plate. Soak one wrapper in the warm water for about 15 seconds or until completely soft. Move the softened wrapper to a clean dry service, making sure it doesn't fold over on itself.
  4. Spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter around the center of the wrapper, leaving about a 1 1/2-inch border all the way around. Place 5 slices of banana on one half of the peanut butter circle. Drizzle 1/4 teaspoon of syrup over the banana slices, then sprinkle with 2 dashes of cinnamon. Carefully fold the wrapper in half, over the half with the banana slices. Fold in half again so you're left with a triangle of sorts. Gently press down the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers.
  5. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the 3 turnovers to the pan, making sure they aren't touching. Cook the turnovers about 4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Place the turnovers on a warm plate, then drizzle with the yogurt sauce and maple syrup. Top with peanuts. Serve the remaining yogurt sauce on the side.
