Peanut Chips into Bread
Posted Fri, 11/21/03
Several weeks ago I bought four packages of chocolate and peanut butter chips because they were on sale. Nicely done, but then I never used them. Yesterday I was cleaning out one of my cupboards and I found the packages again, so I decided to try and find a recipe where I could use up the peanut butter chips.
After a bit of searching, I found the following recipe at the Food & Recipe Message Board, but I also added a cup of the chips to the mix and cut the sugar in half:
Peanut Butter Bread
2 C flour
1/3 C sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 C peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
1 C milk
1 egg, well-beaten
Preheat oven to 350-degrees F. Grease an 8-by-4-inch loaf pan. Put the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the peanut butter, milk and egg and mix until well-blended. Spoon into the pan and bake for about fifty minutes; remove pan from oven and cool on a rack. Makes one loaf.
Instead of making one big loaf, I baked three small ones. They turned out beautifully: moist, light tan in color with the peanut butter chips protruding slightly. The first slice was sumptuous with a nice hot cup of tea.
