Simple Peanut Butter Banana Bread

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 4×8-inch loaf pan.

Step 2
Beat peanut butter and shortening in a bowl. Gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Beat one egg into peanut butter mixture until completely blended before beating in the second egg. Stir in mashed banana.

Step 3
Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a bowl. Stir flour mixture into banana mixture alternately with buttermilk, mixing until batter is just blended. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.
