Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 egg white
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup peanut butter chips
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350
Lightly coat a 8X8" pan with cooking spray
In a large mixing bowl, combine butter, oil, sugars, egg, egg white and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Stir in bananas until blended - the batter will be lumpy.
In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in peanut butter chips. Add this mixture to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined.
Place batter into prepared baking pan and bake for 30-40 minutes. The original recipe had the time at 40-45 minutes, but when I made them they were done way earlier. Bake until the top is golden and starts to pull away from the sides. If you touch the center it should spring back. Cool completely before frosting.
