Banana Peanut Butter Cake

Ingredients

For 2 servings

• 2 medium ripe bananas (about 240 g peeled)
• 2 eggs
• 60 g (¼ cup) smooth peanut butter
• 30 g (¼ cup) walnuts
• 10 g (2 tbsp) unsweetened cocoa powder
• 5 g (1 tsp) baking powder
• A little oil or butter for the dish, or parchment paper

Instructions

1. 1Heat the oven to 200 °C (390 °F). Grease a small baking dish, about 15 × 15 cm (6 × 6 in), or line it with parchment paper.
2. 2Put all the ingredients in a blender and blend until you have a smooth, thick batter. If you like some crunch, keep back a few walnut pieces for the top.
3. 3Pour the batter into the dish, smooth the top and scatter over the reserved walnuts.
4. 4Bake for about 20 minutes, until the cake has risen and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
5. 5Let it cool in the dish for 10 minutes, then cut it into pieces.

Tips

• 💡 The riper the bananas, the sweeter the cake. Bananas with plenty of brown spots are ideal.
• 💡 To make one serving, halve all the ingredients and bake in a dish about 10 × 10 cm (4 × 4 in) for 15 to 18 minutes.
• 💡 Spread a little jam on top or serve with fresh berries. Toppings are not included in the nutrition values.
• 💡 The cake keeps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and tastes great cold.
