Equipment

- Oven
- Cooling rack
Ingredients
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter xylitol-free
- 1 ripe banana mashed
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup water as needed

Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease your mini bundt pan.
Step 2: Mash the banana
- In a mixing bowl, mash the banana until smooth. This adds natural sweetness and moisture.
Step 3: Mix wet ingredients
- Add the peanut butter, egg, and applesauce. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 4: Add dry ingredients
- Stir in the oat flour and baking powder. Mix until combined. Add a little water if the batter feels too thick.
Step 5: Fill the molds
- Spoon the batter evenly into the bundt molds, filling about 3/4 full.
Step 6: Bake
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Step 7: Cool completely
- Let the cakes cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
Step 8: Add topping (optional)
- Mix yogurt and peanut butter, then drizzle or spread lightly on top.
Notes
- Always use xylitol-free peanut butter (this is critical)
- Use very ripe bananas for better sweetness
- Don’t overmix the batter
- Keep an eye on baking time to avoid dryness
- Let cakes cool completely before serving
