Sunday mornings are my favorite time of the week I think. No big hurries. Time to piddle around in the kitchen if the mood strikes.
Lately, I've been making some kind of semi-sweet bread every Sunday morning. Most weeks it's Banana Crunch Bread so that I can use up any mushy bananas that have survived the week. If there aren't any bananas around I sometimes make this yummy peanut butter bread. It has a wonderfully crunchy crust but the inside is tender and moist.
Happy Sunday!
from The Modern Family Cookbook, 1953 edition
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon soda
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/3 cup peanut butter
1 egg
1 cup buttermilk
Sift flour, measure and resift 3 times with soda and salt. Blend sugar into peanut butter. Stir in beaten egg and beat until smooth. Add flour mixture and buttermilk alternately, beating until smooth after each addition. Turn into buttered loaf pan, bake at 350 for 1 hour or until well browned.
It's especially yummy if you've got some Strawberry Freezer Jam that you made earlier in the summer!!
