I've never done the peanut butter spread...Sounds like it could be good...Especially if the bread had Puck-A-Nuts in it......

when my oldest girl was little she liked peanut butter and banana sammies. i would mash the banana with the peanut butter add a little wheat germ and cinnamon, mixed it up till it looked like a mud pie and then spread on bread, cut into triangles. we would eat them with glass of milk with strawberry quick in it.

Hi

Once this is all mixed up, I guess there is no reason why I couldn't bake it in the breadmaker? Just thinking it might use a little less energy than heating the whole oven.

sorry i can't give advise on that as i never used a bread maker. would it make any difference that it isn't a yeast bread?
