  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan.

Notes

TIPS FOR THE PERFECT PEANUT BUTTER MAPLE BANANA BREAD:
  1. For an extra nutty flavor, you can add a handful of chopped nuts to the batter.
  2. Always use ripe bananas. They’re sweeter and easier to mash.
  3. Don’t overmix the batter; it can make the bread dense.
  4. If your bread is browning too quickly, you can cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
  • Slice the Peanut Butter Maple Banana Bread and serve it with a light spread of butter or an additional drizzle of maple syrup.
  • Pair the bread with a glass of almond or soy milk for a delightful treat.
  • For those on the fitness journey, a scoop of Greek yogurt on the side offers a protein-packed compliment.
