🛒 Ingredient notes

🗒️ Step by step instructions
Before you start: Heat oven to 350F and prepare and grease a 9″x5″ pan.
Step 1. Add light brown sugar, sugar, sour cream and peanut butter in a mixing bowl and mix till smooth and creamy. Add milk and eggs to the batter and mix again.
Step 2. Gradually add in flour, baking powder and salt and mix until all lumps are out. Bake for 50-55 minutes until done!
Step 3. Wait for bread to cool and then cut into slices!


👩🍳 Top tips
- Use “Supermarket” Peanut Butter: By that I mean peanut butter that has stabilizers (not natural peanut butter) Not to say that the recipe wouldn’t come out okay but the fat tends to separate in natural peanut butter so I’m not sure how the final texture would come out!
- Don’t Over-mix: Make sure you mix until everything is combined but no need to go overboard of your bread will end up tough!
- Don’t Over-bake: Sometimes oven temperatures can be finicky so I would check 5-10 minutes before you think its done to check!
💡 Variations
While this peanut butter loaf is delicious on its own I added peanut butter streusel on top for extra texture and even more peanut butter flavor!
- Add crushed nuts into the batter
- Spread on some jelly or Nutella on top a slice
- Add chocolate chips in the batter
🤔 Substitutions
No sour cream? Use greek yogurt instead!
No light brown sugar? Replace it with white granulated sugar!
🧺 Storage tips
- Room Temperature: Store at room temperature in an an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Fridge: Cool loaf completely and store them in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
- Freezer:Cool peanut butter bread completely and then place in an airtight container or freezer safe bag and put in the freezer for up to 3 months. It will be good for up to 3 months but note the date of when it was baked on the container! Thaw at room temperature or microwave before eating.

Will try this with natural peanut butter as we do not buy the hydrogenated mainstream stuff with added chemicals

Hi Stephen!
Would love to hear how it turned out! I went to Whole Foods and came across a no-stir peanut butter and that could be an option as well!
Happy Baking!
