Peanut butter banana bread

Peanut butter banana bread is a delightful twist on the classic banana bread recipe. Combining the rich, creamy taste of peanut butter with the sweetness of ripe bananas, this bread is both indulgent and comforting. Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or even dessert, this recipe is easy to make and is sure to become a family favorite.

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and sugar. Beat with an electric mixer or whisk until smooth and creamy.
3. Add Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.
4. Incorporate Milk and Vanilla: Gradually mix in the milk and vanilla extract until well blended.
5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour and salt.
6. Mix Together: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; this will ensure your bread is tender.
7. Pour into Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
8. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cool: Once done, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
10. Serve: Slice and serve your delicious Peanut Butter Banana Bread. Enjoy!

Tips:

- Make sure the bananas are ripe, as they will be sweeter and easier to mash.

- You can add mix-ins like chocolate chips or chopped nuts to add more texture and flavor to the bread.

- If you prefer a less sweet bread, you can reduce the amount of sugar to 1/2 cup (100g).

- For a dairy-free version, substitute the milk with a plant-based milk like almond or soy milk.

- Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to ensure it holds together well.

- Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Peanut butter banana bread is not only delicious but also relatively straightforward to make. With its moist texture and delightful flavor combination, it's an excellent treat for any occasion. Enjoy it on its own, or with a pat of butter or a drizzle of honey for an extra touch of sweetness.
