Clearly, I really really like peanut butter. Maybe really really love peanut butter is more accurate. Anyway, I also really love the idea of having lots of nutrients packed into foods we already love. The original recipe I adapted this from is from Loving Green. She uses bananas and pecans, but since I’m allergic to bananas and I didn’t happen to have pecans I used peanut butter instead.
The girls gobbled them up and so did I. The flavor is delicious without being super sweet. Pure maple syrup or honey would go great drizzled on top.
