Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, honey, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Use a hand or stand mixer to beat the ingredients until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the peanut butter mixture, beating until fully incorporated.
Gradually stir in the dry ingredients and the milk, alternating between the two, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined, making sure not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve plain or with an additional drizzle of honey or a smear of peanut butter for an extra indulgent treat.
