Servings: 1 loaf
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup peanut butter (natural or organic does not work)
- 1 large egg room temperature
- ½ cup white granulated sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 cup sweetened apple sauce
- ½ cup evaporated milk
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- turbinado sugar for topping (see Notes above for peanut butter glaze recipe as an option)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉. Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper to make it easy to pull the bread from the pan when finished baking.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder using a whisk or fork. Add peanut butter and combine with your finger tips until it looks like wet sand. Set aside. (These are your dry ingredients.)
- With your mixer, whip together your egg and both sugars until light and fluffy. Add apple sauce, evaporated milk and baking soda and mix until smooth.
- Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Quickly add the batter to your loaf pan. Sprinkle with Turbinado sugar and bake in preheated oven for 50 minutes - 1 hour. A toothpick should come out clean when inserted into the center.
