When you have a classic recipe like Ina Garten Banana Cake Recipe and adjust the recipe using PBFit Powder you have a winner. Make your high protein cake and eat it too!!
I mean if a banana is in the cake recipe name, shouldn’t that mean it is healthy? We have made some amazing PBFit Powder Recipes like Protein Powder Muffins, Oatmeal PB fit cookies, and pb fit peanut butter cookies. My family had no idea it was in any of them.
How to Bake with PBFit Peanut Butter Powder
Just sub in peanut butter powder for 1/3 the amount of flour called for in the recipe. For recipes that call for peanut butter already, simply rehydrate the powdered peanut butter and use the same amount.
In this cake of the Peanut Butter Banana Cake with Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Icing, we just changed out a few ingredients for PBFit powder resulting in a higher protein dessert.
- 3 very ripe bananas, mashed
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 extra large eggs, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup sour cream or Non Fat Greek Yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, after sifting
- 1/2 Cup Peanut Butter Powder (PBFit)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
PBfit Cream Cheese Frosting
- 6 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups sifted confectioners’ sugar
- 1/4 Cup PB Fit Powder (Chocolate variety is optional)
- Chopped Peanuts (For Topping optional)
How to Make PBFit Frosting Recipe
For the Frosting: We just subbed out a 1/4 cup of the confectionary sugar for the powder. Be sure to taste it to be sure you have a sweet enough frosting.
PBFfit Recipes
This Banana Cake tastes great simply served warm, sprinkled with powdered sugar. However, if you want to take it up a notch, cool completely and top with Peanut Butter Powder Cream Cheese Frosting.
MIX cream cheese, butter, and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on low speed until just combined. Don’t whip. Add powdered sugar and PBFit mix until smooth.
We topped our old fashion banana cake with our peanut powder frosting and then topped it with a little cocoa powder and chopped peanuts.
This is optional of course but we thought it let people know what flavors they were about to taste.
