Ingredients
    5 -6 ripe bananas
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup honey-roasted peanuts, chopped
    1/3 cup frozen butter
    1/2 cup buttermilk
    10 slices bacon, cooked and halved
    Peanut Butter Spread
    1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
    1/4 cup powdered sugar
    1 tablespoon nonfat milk
    1/4 teaspoon vanilla
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
    Cut 4 bananas into 2-inch pieces; halve each piece lengthwise.
    Mash remaining bananas to equal 1/2 cup.
    Sift together flour and next 4 ingredients in a large bowl; add mashed bananas and peanuts.
    Grate butter over flour mixture, using large holes of a box grater.
    Cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender or fork until crumbly.
    Add buttermilk, stirring just until mixture is slightly moistened.
    Turn dough out onto a heavily floured surface; shape into a ball.
    Pat into a 1/2-inch thick circle.
    Cut with a floured 3-inch round cutter, and place biscuits 1 inch apart on a lightly greased baking sheet.
    Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden.
    Meanwhile, make Peanut Butter Spread-stir together the peanut butter, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla in a microwave-safe bowl.
    Microwave at HIGH at 30-second intervals until softened; stir until smooth.
    Split warm biscuits; spread bottom halves of biscuits with Peanut Butter Spread.
    Top each with 2 bacon pieces and 2 banana slices.
    Cover with biscuit tops.
