bacon peanut butter banana bread

This is a very Elvis-y recipe with all the peanut butter and bananas, but I think it’s more breakfast-y. I mean it’s bread, peanut butter, bananas, and BACON – a full breakfast meal in one slice of banana bread. Recipe and image via How Sweet Eats.

6 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped
