3. Place thinly sliced bananas over the jelly, dividing them evenly among the tortillas.
4. Drizzle honey over the bananas (if using) and sprinkle mini chocolate chips over the bananas (if using).
5. Roll up each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides as you go, to form a burrito.
6. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Spray with cooking spray or melt a little butter in the skillet.
7. Place the burritos seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
