Whew! That is some title. The peanut butter topping on this is outstanding. My bananas were very sweet and ripe, so I was able to get away with less sugar in the batter (I used the full amount in the topping though). From Southern Living.

1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine, melted

  • Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature: The bread will keep for up to 3 days.
