Cashew Butter Banana Bread

Disclaimer: This post features some gifted items. I would NEVER recommend something I didn’t love and use myself. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I’m a huge fan of banana bread, it’s easy to make and a great way to use up old bananas. You mostly see almond or peanut butter with banana bread but I thought cashews would work really nicely and give the bread a creamy and moist texture.

I made this recipe in collaboration with Katie’s Nuttery who kindly gifted me their entire range of gorgeous nut butters to bake with. They’re a small business here in Brighton who make incredible nut butters. In this recipe, I use their creamy Cashew Butter *gifted.

Butter range: Almond Butter, Bazil & Sunflower Butter, Cashew Butter, Hazelnut Butter, Peanut Butter, Pecan Butter (my favourite), Cocoa Hazelnut Butter & Hot Peanut Butter.

Katie’s Nuttery is a family business inspired by my lifelong obsession with nut butters, love of nut milks and belief in plant-based eating. My products are wholesome, totally delicious and are all made from organic ingredients. 

I’m really into using different sugars and thought banana bread wouldn’t be the same without brown sugar, totally not true. Stevia works really nicely and you don’t need to use as much.

About Stevia

Stevia, also called Stevia rebaudiana, is a plant that is a member of the chrysanthemum family, a subgroup of the Asteraceae family (ragweed family). 

Stevia is a nonnutritive sweetener (this means it has almost no calories). If you have diabetes, stevia may help keep your blood sugar levels in check.

Stevia may be used instead of sugar in your favourite foods and drinks. A pinch of stevia powder is equal to about one teaspoon of table sugar. So in recipes only use half as much sugar at calls for when using stevia.

The toppings of seeds and banana chips are totally optional but I think they work so well and give it something extra. Banana chips look nicer than adding raw banana on top (which I usually do) because raw banana goes really brown in the oven.

Also, feel free to spread your slices or the top of your creation with more nut butter, it totally works and is so good.
