Depression Era Peanut Butter Bread
This Depression Era peanut butter bread is not too sweet, and was developed during the depression when eggs, oil, and butter were hard to come by. I have modernized it a bit by adding chopped peanuts and PB2 powdered peanut butter, but they are optional. The bread is equally delicious without them.
