Peanut Butter & Banana Energy Bread
I like to pack bananas with my lunch everyday but I tend to buy too many and I'm left with a couple ripe bananas at the end of the week. I hate to waste these so I make banana bread on a regular basis. I came up with this healthy version and I love it! The bread is packed with protein and is really moist.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan. In a large bowl, beat the oil, honey and peanut butter together. Add the eggs and beat well, then add in the mashed bananas, milk and vanilla and beat until combined.
- Add the baking soda, salt and cinnamon, and whisk to blend. Lastly, switch to a big spoon and stir in the flour, just until combined (Lumps are ok).
- Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and sprinkle cinnamon on top - if you'd like a swirled effect, run the tip of a knife across the batter in a zig-zag pattern.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool for 20 minutes before slicing.
