Ingredients

• 3 large ripe bananas
• 0.5 cup Jif creamy peanut butter
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.

Step 3

Add the Jif creamy peanut butter, melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar to the mashed bananas. Mix until combined.

Step 4

Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 7

Stir in the milk to loosen the batter. Fold in the chopped walnuts, if using.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.

Step 11

Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
