INGREDIENTS

Cookies:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1  ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon Justin’s Maple Almond Butter
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • ⅔ cup pumpkin puree

 

Maple Almond Butter Glaze:

  • ¼ cup Justin’s Maple Almond Butter
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 3-4 tablespoons almond milk
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cloves, cinnamon and salt.
  3. In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream butter and sugars together, occasionally scraping the sides of the bowl with a spatula until well combined. Add egg, almond butter, maple syrup and pumpkin puree. Mix on medium/high speed for 2 minutes. Add the dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined. Fold in pecans.
  4. Using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop cookie dough 2 inches apart on a large cookie sheet.
  5. Bake for 13-15 minutes.
  6. While cookies cool, make the glaze. In a glass measuring cup, combine the almond butter and maple syrup. Microwave 20-30 seconds and stir. Whisk in the powdered sugar. Add the almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, as needed to create a drizzly glaze. Once cookies have cooled, drizzle with glaze and sprinkle chopped pecans.

Frozen Chocolate PB Banana Pops with chocolate drizzle, rainbow sprinkles, Justin's honey peanut butter jar and two bananas

Contrary to what you may be thinking the “PB” in this Frozen Chocolate PB Banana Pops recipe stands for “perfectly blended (flavors)”. Ok not really, but that doesn’t make it untrue. This recipe is tasty and a great way to stay cool on hot days. I make them with JUSTIN’S® Honey Peanut Butter, fresh bananas, and decorate them with sprinkles. It’s a great project that you can make and eat with the kids!
