When the potatoes are finished roasting, remove them from the oven and let them sit until they are cool enough to handle. Meanwhile, combine the nut butter and vanilla extract in a small bowl. For ultimate drippiness, nuke the nut butter in the microwave in 20-second bursts until melty. Slice the banana.
