I think I’ll crumble some of the leftover lara bar on top with a few chopped peanuts for garnish since I don’t have any chocolate syrup. Tastes like banana.” So, in response to those who are wondering if it’ll taste like banana: YES (unless maybe you used under-ripe rather than over-ripe bananas? but then it wouldn’t be as sweet). I took some on a spoon to my hubby to taste (who did not know the ingredients at all) and his response was, “That’s really good. The texture and flavor FAR surpassed what I expected. I tasted it and decided to add an additional 3-4 T. I did not add any sugar/stevia or other sweetener. Mott’s Original (sweetened because I had it on hand) for the rest. I used the ingredient amounts for “deep dish” except I only used 2 bananas and subbed 1 1/4 c. (I knew I could trust Katie’s recipes to be good anyway!) I made this in a 9″ round metal cake pan lined with saran wrap and used larabar as a crust (I don’t like coconut and couldn’t find GF alternative to graham crackers). I typically like to try recipes before debuting them at a party, but just bought ingredients last minute. My son is turning 3 and we’re having a “Peanut Butter Party” for his birthday tomorrow. You could do this in ice cube trays as well (which I like to do with a lot of puddings, dips and smoothies) for small portions.Īnyway, I could hardly stop licking the utensils… Then, since I love cold bite size portions, I used a pb cup mold and added a scant 1/2 t crust in each, pressed to stick it, filled up the cups with pie filling (about 1 t) and froze.

Here’s what I did if it will help some others–I can’t really do sugars, even natural, so I cut out 2 bananas (used 1 very ripe med size), added 3oz extra firm silken tofu, stuck with stevia to sweeten (about 20 drops toffee flavor in addition to the powder you call for), added about 1/2 t maple extract to make up for missing flavor (and mine didn’t taste one bit banana-ish, for those readers not wanting banana flavor). I made a couple subs due to my dietary needs and it is still yum. I look forward to receiving each new recipe in my inbox!Īnd I made this pie as soon as I saw the post last night. Happy birthday Katie! Youve given many people (especially me!) the gift of hope, that there are many fab delish options even on a highly restrictive diet.
