Method

8 steps

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a square baking pan with foil and grease it with oil.
In a small bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
In a large bowl, beat the peanut butter, sugar, and softened butter until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat again.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and stir until the ingredients are combined.
Spread half of the dough into the pan, distributing it evenly over the bottom. Place the second half of the dough in the freezer for 10 minutes.
Spread the jam over the layer of dough in the pan.
Remove the dough from the freezer, break it into small pieces, and distribute them over the jam. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts on top.
Bake for about 30 minutes until golden brown. Cool completely in the pan before cutting into 16 squares.
