Peanut Butter Banana Bread Recipe

This peanut butter banana bread is the perfect thing to have with a cup of tea. In fact, I’d say that if you are a peanut butter fan, then you have to try this! It is a firm favourite in our house; I try and hide it so that it doesn’t disappear quickly but it always does. There is nothing better than the smell of a cake baking in the oven. Especially peanut butter banana bread. Plus, you get to eat it afterwards  I use smooth peanut butter for this peanut butter banana bread but you could use crunchy if you prefer!

 

Pre-heat your oven to 180º/160º fan/350f. Line a 2 lb loaf tin with baking parchment.

 

Ingredients:

–  140 g self-raising flour

–  140g caster sugar

–  140g salted butter

–  2 large eggs

–  1 tsp baking powder

–  1 heaped tbsp smooth peanut butter

–  2 ripe bananas, mashed

 

Method:

 1. Firstly, cream the peanut butter butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

2. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Then sieve the flour and baking powder in.

3. Fold in the mashed bananas, gently,

4. Pour the mixture into a loaf tin and cook for approx. 50 minutes

5. Leave to cool in the tin, if you can!

 

That’s it! Very straight forward and so tasty.  Serve in slices and, paired with a cup of tea, is the perfect afternoon treat. As is my lemon drizzle cake,  if you fancy trying something else either way, a making a cake is always going to make you feel better  it’s also a great one to make with children, to get them involved with baking! Mine argue over who gets to lick the spoon and who gets to lick the bowl!
