Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
In another bowl, mix together the milk, peanut butter, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve plain, or with a spread of jam or honey if desired.
