Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 cups (250 g) all purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon (1 tablespoon) baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon (1 teaspoon) salt
  • ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large (1 large) egg at room temperature
  • 1 cup (237 ml) milk 2% or whole milk
  • ½ cup (130 g) creamy peanut butter not chunky

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F/190°C, and grease a loaf pan with baking spray or butter.
  • In a bowl, combine flour with baking powder, salt and sugar. Whisk to combine. To the same bowl add an egg, milk and peanut butter and whisk again until combined.
  • Pour into the loaf pan, and bake for 50 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert on a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Storing: This bread will stay fresh in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days. You can also store it in the fridge, and that should keep it fresh for up to 7 days.
  • Peanut Butter quick bread freezes well too. I like to freeze it in individual slices, but sometimes I’ll make a few loaves and freeze whole loaves too.
  • To freeze bread slices: Simply slice the bread and lay the slices on a sheet tray. Freeze for about an hour, then remove the slices and place them into a ziplock bag. When you want a slice, you can allow one to thaw, or put a frozen slice right into the toaster oven or microwave.
  • Freeze full loaves wrapped in plastic wrap and inside of an airtight container. Enjoy within three months.
