Ingredients
- 240 grams whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 240 grams creamy unsweetened peanut butter
- 120 ml unsweetened apple sauce
- 240 ml milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 50 grams chopped peanuts (optional for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, add the creamy unsweetened peanut butter and unsweetened apple sauce. Mix well using a wooden spoon or hand mixer until smooth.
Step 4
Add the milk, vanilla extract, and eggs to the peanut butter mixture. Mix until combined and smooth.
Step 5
Gradually fold in the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Mix until the ingredients are just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle chopped peanuts on top for extra texture.
Step 7
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Step 9
Slice the bread into 10 servings and enjoy plain or with your favorite topping. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
