Wash hands with soap and water.
Gently rub the banana under cold running water. Scrub lemon with a clean vegetable brush under running water. Dry with a clean towel.
Peel the banana and cut it in half lengthwise. These are the ‘bread’ part of the bananawich (see photo).
Add the lemon juice to a shallow bowl. Roll the banana slices in lemon juice to prevent browning. Pat the banana slices dry with a clean towel to remove excess lemon juice.
Spread 2 Tablespoons of peanut butter on the bottom half of the banana. Top with remaining banana.
Place the bananawich near the lower part of a plate to form a smile.
Next, place the crackers near the top of the plate. Top each cracker with a dried cranberry so they look like eyes.
Add a maraschino cherry for the nose.
Use dried cranberries above the eyes to create eyebrows.
Serve immediately.
