Peanut Butter Banana Bread

Steps

• Prep: Heat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 9x5 loaf pan.
• Wet: Mash the bananas, then whisk in the peanut butter, oil, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla until completely uniform.

  Tip: Get the peanut butter fully incorporated now. Streaks left at this stage stay as dense, greasy seams in the baked loaf.

• Dry: Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together.
• Combine: Fold the dry into the wet just until no flour is visible.
• Bake: Bake until well risen and a skewer in the centre comes out clean.

  Tip: This batter is heavier than plain banana bread and needs a few extra minutes. Look for a genuinely clean skewer here, not moist crumbs.

• Cool: Cool in the pan 20 minutes, then turn out onto a rack.
