When I saw this recipe from Andy at Dinner’s on Me, I had to keep it to try. I mean banana bread with peanut butter, I love just about anything with peanut butter. Plus, bananas and peanut butter go well together.
Shortly after I found this recipe, my sweet neighbor called. She had purchased a bunch of bananas that were on sale at the store because they were turning brown. My neighbor bought a lot and was going to freeze them, but didn’t have enough space for all of them. So she sent over two large bunches of bananas. My first thought then was of this recipe. I had to try it.

This recipe is very easy to put together and can all be done in one bowl. I must say this bread turned out fabulous. It is a very good banana bread as far as banana breads go and it has just a hint of peanut butter flavor along the the banana. It’s not over powering, just a nice compliment to the banana flavor. I will absolutely make this again when I have bananas that need some attention. It was delicious.
