Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
• 5 tablespoons water
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 cup natural peanut butter
• 0.5 cup maple syrup
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup chopped peanuts

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the flaxseed meal and water. Stir well and let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken. This will serve as your flax egg.

Step 3

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.

Step 4

In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter and maple syrup until smooth.

Step 5

Add in the almond milk and vanilla extract, stirring until fully combined.

Step 6

Pour the flaxseed mixture into the wet ingredients and mix until well incorporated.

Step 7

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 8

Fold in the chopped peanuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 9

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 11

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
