Peanut Butter Bread is a super simple, but tasty bread that you can prepare in a blender! Add a banana to the mix and you get a subtle banana taste that pairs so nicely with the peanut butter flavor. Made in partnership with KitchenAid, this bread is a must-try. If you make it, show me by taking a photo and using #MakeItTogether! It’s a delicious breakfast food or anytime treat! And for another quick bread recipe, try my Chocolate Chip Banana Bread.
Peanut Butter Bread
Who knew that you could have a loaf of freshly baked bread without all the fuss of kneading the dough and letting it rise? This quick bread is even quicker than other quick bread recipes since all the mixing is done in a blender!!! I used my KitchenAid K400 Blender for this recipe, and it could not have been easier, using the 5-speed variable dial to make this simple, yet oh-so-delicious bread.
Peanut Butter Bread Recipe
Quick bread is bread that is made without using yeast as a leavening agent. That is good news at a time when yeast can be hard to find. Be sure to check out my list of Quick Bread Recipes for more quick bread options!
What Does Blender Peanut Butter Bread Taste Like?
It is subtle and sweet. Perfect for breakfast, (I love it toasted with more peanut butter smothered on- you can see it in the very last picture), a snack, or for a PB&J sandwich! Quite frankly, every time I make it, it’s gone before I can think about leftovers! 🙂
Storing Bread
Keep the loaf of bread stored at room temperature, wrapped in plastic wrap, for up to three days. If you want to freeze the bread, make sure to let it cool completely. Then, wrap the bread tightly with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap and place in a heavy-duty freezer bag.
If you prefer not to use foil directly on your bread, wrap it tightly with parchment paper, then place that into a sealable plastic bag. Be sure to label it with the date. Bread is typically good for three to six months in the freezer, but the flavor will start to dull after about 1 month. To thaw bread, take it out of the freezer and set it on the counter. Allow it to reach room temperature before you take it out of its packaging. It will re-absorb some of its moisture this way.

Here is how I love it… smothered in more peanut butter!
So tempting!
However will this recipe works with normal hand mixer? Or is it a must to use a blender?
Hi, Yan! I work with iambaker and am happy to help with questions. A high powdered blender works best. You could get away with using a stand mixer, but I would not recommend a hand mixer for this recipe. Have a great day!
Hi. What could you use in place of banana? Thansk
Hi, Marissa! I work with iambaker and am happy to help with questions. You could try a half a cup of applesauce in place of the banana. However, we have not tested that in this recipe, so I can’t say how it would affect the bread. I hope this helps, and have a great day!
This is different! I can’t wait to try it!
Before I make this bread can you tell me the calories, fiber and carbs?
Can I replace the banana w half cup applesauce? Allergic to bananas.
Hi, Helen! I work with iambaker and am happy to help with questions. You could certainly try using applesauce instead of bananas, but we have not tested that in this recipe. Let us know how it turns out, and have a great day!
I would love to bake with you. Any gluten free, dairy free recipes for my husband?
Hi, Shirley! I work with iambaker and am happy to help with questions. We don’t have any gluten-free and dairy-free specific recipes right now, but a great suggestion! Have a great day!
What else instead of banana can one use
Hi, Abigail! I work with iambaker and am happy to help with questions. You could try using a half cup of applesauce in place of the banana. But, we have not tested that, so I can’t say how it would affect the bread. I hope this helps, and have a great day!
Could you use this recipe and substitute jam or something else for the peanut butter?
Hi, Cookie! I work with iambaker and am happy to help with questions. We have not tried any substitutions for the peanut butter, so I can’t say how it would turn out. Let us know if you give it a shot, and have a great day!
Can you leave the peanut butter out, allergy?
Hi, Thom! I work with iambaker and am happy to help with questions. We have not tried this recipe without the peanut butter, so I can’t say how it would turn out. Let us know if you try it, and have a great day!
Looks lovely will try it soon
