2 tablespoons peanut butter

directions

Preheat oven to 350°, grease a 9-inch loaf pan.
Spread 3 tablespoons of the butter over the bottom of the pan; cover with 1/4 cup brown sugar and chopped peanuts.
Whisk the flour, soda, baking powder, and salt together.
Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter with the peanut butter.
Beat the egg until frothy and beat in the 1 cup brown sugar gradually; stir in the peanut butter mixture and the buttermilk.
Mix this liquid mixture with the dry ingredients but do not beat; pour the batter over the brown sugar topping and bake 1 hour.
Cool in the pan 10 minutes, then invert on a rack.
