Plain-English summary

Olive Bakery is voluntarily recalling two packages of Peanut Butter Bread. The product consists of two bread pastries filled with peanut butter, packaged together in a clear plastic bag with a fold-down stick seal. The packaging features white printing and lists ingredients including peanut butter, flour, water, sugar, milk, butter, eggs, salt, and yeast.

Additionally, the product contains Non-Dairy Cream, but the label does not declare the sub-ingredient Soy Lecithin. The agency has classified this recall as Class II.

The product was distributed in Oregon and Washington. Consumers who have purchased this product should check their pantries for the specific packaging described above. If found, consumers should stop consuming the product and contact Olive Bakery for further instructions or a refund.
