Every bite of this loaf is like taking a bite of your favourite sandwich - but even better.

1 3/4 cups (260g) plain flour, sifted
2 tsp baking powder
1 cup (220g) caster sugar
125g unsalted butter, melted, cooled
1 cup (280g) peanut butter
1 cup (250ml) buttermilk
Juice of 1/2 lemon
3 eggs
1 cup (150g) roasted unsalted peanuts, chopped
450g strawberries, hulled
Icing sugar and warmed strawberry jam, to serve

Method

1.

Preheat oven to 170°C. Line the base and sides of two 1.25L loaf pans with baking paper, leaving 2cm above sides.
2.

Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, butter, peanut butter, buttermilk, lemon juice, eggs, 2/3 cup (100g) peanuts and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Chop 300g berries and stir through mixture. Divide batter between pans. Slice remaining berries and layer over batter with remaining peanuts. Bake for 55 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with icing sugar and drizzle with jam.
