Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (128 grams) salted natural peanut butter (the kind with just peanuts and salt!)
• 3 tablespoons (60 grams) honey
• 2 tablespoons (28 grams) coconut oil, room temperature1
• 1 cup (125 grams) white whole wheat or whole spelt flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2 very ripe bananas (mine were each 182 with the peel and 135 grams without the peel)
• 1/2 cup raw sugar or brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons coconut oil, melted and cooled slightly
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg, room temperature

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Line an 8x8 (20cmx20cm) pan with a piece of parchment paper.
• In a small mixing bowl, stir together all the topping ingredients until well combined. Set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas very well with the bottom of a drinking glass (or mash however you wish). Add the sugar, coconut oil, and vanilla and stir until well combined. Add the egg and stir just until combined.
• Add the dry mix to the wet and stir just until combined.
• Pour into the prepared pan. Add the topping – it will cover the entire surface.
• Bake for 16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out without any batter on it, keeping in mind that the peanut butter layer may still be sticky or gooey.
• Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
• Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
