Move over plain jane banana bread! There’s a new banana bread in town, and it goes by PBJ. That’s right, this banana bread is made with creamy peanut butter, crunchy peanuts, and a swirl of strawberry jam. It’s like banana bread and a PBJ had a baby! Who says you can’t have a PBJ for breakfast?

For being loaded up with all the PBJ favorites, this banana bread is made better-for-you in the best of ways! All of the sugar has been subbed out for natural sweetener, and half of the oil was swapped for an unsweetened apple sauce. Don’t worry though! Even with those minor adjustments, this bread turns out a-mazing!

This bread is great for breakfast or brunch. I paired mine with some fresh berries and a dab of butter. All said and done, each slice of this bread comes in at under 300 calories, and for something that seems so decadent? That’s pretty great.

There isn’t much better to wake up to in the morning than a slice of this PBJ Banana Bread warmed up and paired with your favorite coffee!
