We made this recipe when we were in Cologne because we wanted to try rhubarb for the first time by making something delicious for you guys and we absolutely LOVED it! It’s our take on the classic peanut butter jelly sandwich, but we’ve used homemade rhubarb jelly and added a cooked banana too, so delicious!
Rhubarb is not a common ingredient here in Spain, it’s very hard to find in fact, so when we saw it in a supermarket, we knew we had to buy it. Luckily, we found it at a local market in Spain (yay!) and yesterday I made another batch of this amazing jelly. It’s the best jelly I’ve ever tried and it’s made with natural ingredients.
Homemade peanut butter is great, you only need peanuts to make it, and it’s the healthiest peanut butter you can eat. If you don’t want to make it at home, at least try to avoid those made with nasty ingredients like preservatives or hydrogenated oils.
Rhubarb is so pretty! It looks like celery to me, but it tastes totally different. I would appreciate it if you could share some recipe ideas with this amazing ingredient, just leave a comment and let me know. Thanks for your help guys!
Advices:
- Don’t cook the banana if you want to save time, just use it raw.
- Feel free to use any other gelatin or nut butter (I really like almond butter).
- If you can’t get rhubarb, use strawberries or any berry.
