Delicious peanut butter & jelly banana bread recipe recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ½ cup grape jelly (or your preferred jelly)
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup milk

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, combine the peanut butter, jelly, mashed banana, egg, and milk. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
  3. Step 3: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix. The batter will be thick.
  4. Step 4: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
  5. Step 5: Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Step 6: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
  • For a warm, gooey treat, reheat slices briefly in the microwave or toaster oven.
  • Serve this bread alongside a dollop of Greek yogurt or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast in textures and flavors.
  • To prevent the bread from being too dense, don't overmix the batter; a few lumps are perfectly okay.
