Have you tried Peanut Butter Banana Tea Time Cake? If you are a peanut butter lover, you are going to go bananas for this banana bread recipe. It has full of peanut butter flavor and banana. Earlier, I baked Chocolate peanut butter cake, and it’s a foolproof recipe. But, this cake recipe is without cocoa powder and it turned out super delicious.

Overripe bananas are the best for baking. Bananas are so good for you, they are naturally sweet and rich in potassium, which plays an important role decreasing the risk of high blood pressure and stroke.

Peanut Butter and banana are a classic combination, and with good reason. Not only do their flavors compliment each other well, they also have some potential health benefits. Peanut butter is a good source of monounsaturated fats, antioxidants, as well as nutrients like magnesium, folate, and vitamin E.

Making your own peanut butter is super easy. It takes a few minutes to transform whole peanuts into warm and creamy, delicious homemade peanut butter. Place roasted and skin removed peanuts in a food processor. Turn the food processor on and let it run for 4-5 minutes. Roasted peanuts will go from crumbs to a dry ball to a smooth and creamy liquid Peanut Butter. Stir in the brown sugar, honey, or salt, if you want.
