Here is another variation of the always popular banana bread.
BANANA PEANUT BUTTER BREAD
1 cup granulated sugar
1 stick butter
2 large eggs
2 cups all purpose flour
2 large or 3 small bananas, mashed
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup chopped peanuts, divided
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan (I use a paper loaf liner instead of greasing the pan). Combine sugar and butter in a large bowl. Beat with electric mixer set at medium-high speed until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs. Add flour, bananas, peanut butter and baking soda to creamed mixture and mix well. Add 6 tablespoons peanuts to peanut butter mixture and mix well. Spoon batter into prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with the remaining peanuts. Bake bread until a toothpick inserted in center of bread comes out clean, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
NOTE: I have also used chucky peanut butter instead of creamy.
ooh, peanut butter in banana bread would be ace 🙂

Peanut butter is a great addition! Very tempted to try this… I have some manky old bananas in my fruit bowl just begging to be all used up

Never hurts to add peanut butter for protein, too!
