Equipment

3.5 quart slow cooker or larger
mixing bowl
fork or potato masher
measuring cup
mixing spoons
slow cooker liner/parchment paper (optional)

Ingredients

3 ripe bananas
3 eggs
½ cup peanut butter
1 box vanilla cake mix chocolate cake mix is a great option too!
non-stick cooking spray

Instructions

if you choose to use a liner or parchment paper, add it to your slow cooker
spray liner or slow cooker itself with non-stick cooking spray
add bananas to bowl and mash with fork or potato masher until smooth
add eggs to bananas and mix until fully combined
add peanut butter and mix until fully combined
add cake mix and stir until fully combined and a batter-like consistency is reached
pour batter into slow cooker. make sure it is spread evenly throughout
cover and cook on high for 3-5 hours (this will vary by slow cooker)
check for doneness by inserting a wooden toothpick into the center of your banana bread. Bread is done when a toothpick comes out clean.
watch edges of banana bread carefully. If one side is becoming more done than the other, use pot holders to pick up ceramic insert and rotate 180°. This will help even-out cooking.
once fully cooked, remove ceramic pot and place on a heat safe surface. Allow to cool for 30-60 minutes or scoop out by the spoonful to serve warm.
