I just made these for a potluck two days ago and they came out fabulous! I thought I had peanuts at home but I didn't so I skipped that and added an extra banana (they were smaller than average) and some more jackfruit to compensate. It turned out very moist, great flavor, and dense like a light banana bread. Everyone loved it and they all disappeared in minutes. Yay!

It's the first day of summer and my husband is having a potluck tomorrow. I'm going to see if I can track down some jackfruit tonight. One question, for future batches of these that I'll inevitably make: could I substitute peanut butter for the peanuts? My brother doesn't like nutty chunks in his food, so I figured peanut butter could sub for the actual nuts. Would I still use 1/2 cup of peanut butter, or should I lessen the amount? Thanks so much!! You never fail to impress me, this blog is grrrrrreat! Mehgan Great recipe! It’s the first day of summer and my husband is having a potluck tomorrow.

Smell wonderful! I tried jackfruit and not a big fan, but I had the canned one so I am sure that took away from the "real" fruit. I doubt I'll ever find the whole fruit here in SC but who knows!
