Ingredient Details to Know
*If you don’t have powdered peanut butter see recipe in directions for using traditional creamy peanut butter. Check powdered PB to make sure it's a gluten and dairy free brand if you have dietary restrictions. 

Instructions
 

TO MAKE THE PEANUTELLA:

  • Mix all ingredients together until smooth and creamy. If it’s too stiff and thick, add 1 to 2 tablespoons additional water and continue to stir until you reach a spreadable-velvety consistency.
  • If using creamy peanut butter, soften ¼ cup peanut butter in microwave (about 30 seconds) and then stir in 3 tablespoons cocoa powder, 3 tablespoons sugar, a pinch of salt and 2 tablespoons of water. Mix until smooth and well-blended. Add a 3rd tablespoon water if it’s too thick.

TO MAKE THE TOAST:

  • Top your whole grain toast with 1 to 2 tablespoons of Peanutella and layer with bananas and other preferred fruit.
