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!
Top with melting butter!
I like dark chocolate chips and milk chocolate chips are also amazing!
This chocolate chip peanut butter banana bread is a back to school breakfast that will have your family up early in the mornings!

This recipe looks amazing, Kevin..😀 Can’t wait to try it..!!
Hi there, wondering if I can sub oat flour instead of the all purpose flour?
Thanks 🙂
Yes you can!
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!
