Peanut Butter Streusel Coffee Bread

If you like peanut butter, you will love this recipe. It is quick and easy to make with ingredients that you likely have around the kitchen. This bread pairs well with coffee, as its name implies. If you enjoy this treat while it is still fresh from the oven, the peanut butter will be warm and gooey. This coffee bread is a good dessert or a midday snack.

When I made this quick bread, the peanut butter did not quite form into the coarse crumbs that you might expect for a streusel topping, instead, there were pockets of peanut butter. The bread was still delicious.
