Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat & Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, eggs, sugar, and milk until smooth and well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt to ensure even distribution.
- Mix Everything: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread light.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool & Serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
Notes
- For extra crunch, use chunky peanut butter instead of creamy.
- Add chocolate chips for a peanut butter chocolate twist.
- Replace sugar with honey for a more natural sweetness.
