Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Banana Bread

[heart_this] · Sep 9, 2019 · 9 Comments

Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Banana Bread

The magical flavour combination of peanut butter, chocolate and bananas combined in a quick bread that is so easy to make!

Chocolate and peanut are one of my favourite flavour combinations, especially for breakfast in the form of this chocolate chip peanut butter banana bread! This is quick bread, which means no kneading, and it’s super easy to make, you simply mix the ingredients and bake! Bananas are really nice in quick breads adding moisture, sweetness and the banana flavour and aroma which goes amazingly well with peanut and chocolate! Speaking of the peanut and chocolate flavours, they come in the form of peanut butter and chocolate chips! I like to make these loaves on the weekend for quick weekday breakfasts (or desserts or treats) and they are easy enough to make on weeknights so they are perfect for busy school/workdays!

    Delicious! I made these today as an after school treat for my kids. We all loved them. The peanut butter and banana flavor were light and the chocolate chips made them sweet but not too sweet. I made muffins instead of bread, cooked at 350 for 19 minutes and try came out moist with high domed tops. The only ingredient I left out was the cinnamon due to an allergy. Thank you for sharing the recipe!

      I was thinking to make muffins! Did you use a regular 12 muffin pan?

    It’s moist and delicious however hubby and I agree that we can’t taste the peanut butter at all. I used the chocolate chips and I think they overwhelm both the peanut butter and banana flavors. I will make this again but I think I will either skip the chocolate chips or maybe use peanut butter chips instead.

    We’re the chips put on after the bread came out of the oven? Chips mixed in with the batter are usually towards the bottom of the loaf in my experience.

      I sprinkled some chips on top of the batter before baking. The chips that are mixed into the batter tend to be pretty well distributed in the bread rather than at the bottom.
