Peanut Butter Chip Banana Bread

Peanut Butter Chip Banana Bread

I am always keeping a look out for breakfast foods that use up nice ripe bananas. When I came across this recipe for banana bread with the added twist of peanut butter and peanut butter chips I knew right away that I needed to make this.

Not only is this bread unbelievably and amazingly good, but it is fairly easy to make. The hardest part is waiting the hour for it to bake and then the additional time for it to cool. But it is all worth it!

Peanut Butter Chip Banana Bread

Ingredients:

  • 3 medium to large ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup vegetable or canola oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup peanut butter chips

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a loaf pan (mine was 9x5x3).
  2. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt, set aside.
  3. In a large bowl use a fork to mash the bananas. In the same bowl mix in the peanut butter, oil, egg, granulated sugar, and brown sugar.
  4. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients stirring until just combined. Batter will be lumpy, so do not over mix.
  5. Fold the peanut butter chips into the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into prepared pan and smooth top as much as you can.
  7. Bake in oven for about an hour or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  9. Run a knife carefully between the edge of the pan and the bread to help loosen. Remove bread from pan and let it finish cooling on a cooling rack.
Enjoy!!!
