Peanut butter 'bread' recipe... be warned, it super easy and super delicious

79 replies

00100001 · 30/05/2020 13:30

Ingredients
240g/2cups plain flour
100g/ 0.5 cup sugar
4 tsp baking powder
0.5 tsp salt
330ml/ 1.3 cup milk
120g/Generous 0.5 cup peanut butter
180g/1 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)

Method
Preheat oven to 160c/325f/gas mark 3
Mix together dry ingredients.
Mix in the milk, then the peanut butter. Stir chocolate through. Scrape into greased loaf pan and bake for about 1 hour.

Best eaten warm and with coffee. Otherwise if you were extra generous with the PB might feel all a bit dry.
Warm or cold, out jam on it 😋

P.s. use the chocolate chips!

Oh wow! This sounds amazing. Do you use crunchy or smooth?

This sounds amazing - I'm saving it for once I'm over my diet!

Plump82 · 30/05/2020 13:42

I think a mashed banana through that would take it to another level!

Made it. It’s ok. Needs to be sweeter I think. Rose very high and weighs the same as a small car.

MumpsimusMaximus · 30/05/2020 15:44

Didn’t have chic chips which might have improved things.

Stomach rumbling. Sounds delish 😋

Plump82 · 30/05/2020 16:15

I think I'll give it a go once the bananas I have in are a little riper.

Did you try it with jam? (then you don't need the extra sugar)

Oh, and i'd recommend weighing the ingredients, rather than using cups, especially the flour

Ooh, please come back and update us!
MongerTruffle · 30/05/2020 16:37

I think some of your measurements are off.
1/2 cup sugar is 100 g, not 50.

MumpsimusMaximus · 30/05/2020 17:20

I weighed rather than using cups. Maybe that’s why it wasn’t sweet enough.

It's probably because it should be 100g sugar .... !

I made it!

Use gluten-free flour so I added some xanthan gum. The chocolate chips totally make it. It’s a bit like banana bread. I haven’t had it with jam yet, but about an inch of butter on top while it was warm was lush.

Disclaimer: used up the ends of two jars of peanut butter; one of the jars was peanut butter with Marmite… 🤣

LaneBoy · 30/05/2020 21:44

I really shouldn’t have looked at this thread.

I am absolutely shit at baking but I may have to try this! Chocolate chips compulsory not optional, though :o

THisbackwithavengeance · 30/05/2020 21:56

Placemarking. Going to make it tomorrow. Cake
