Bananas and peanut butter go together perfectly and are staples in many kitchens. For this recipe, you’ll want just slightly soft bananas. If your bananas are black and mushy, save them for banana bread as they will be too sweet. To lower the fat content even more, you could use fat free cream cheese and omit the peanut butter topping. The recipe makes 2 mini cheesecakes, perfect for you and a friend!
Ingredients
Directions
Using a food processor, pulse graham crackers until finely chopped. Melt margarine in a small microwave safe bowl. Add graham cracker crumbs and mix well. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
