Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bread (UK Recipe)
Moist and fluffy banana bread studded with chocolate chips and the crunch of peanut butter. My Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bread is the best way to use up ripe bananas.
Ingredients
- 125 g unsalted butter softened
- 100 g light brown sugar
- 50 g dark brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 250 g plain flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 250 g bananas peel before weighing
- 130 g crunchy peanut butter
- 100 g milk chocolate chips or chunks
- 2 tbsp milk
- A few chocolate chips to decorate optional
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 160ºC (fan assisted or 180ºC non fan) and line a 2lb loaf tin
-
Beat 125g unsalted butter, 100g light brown sugar and 50g dark brown sugar together for at least 5 minutes until pale and fluffy
-
Add 2 eggs and mix again
-
Add 250g plain flour, 2 tsp baking powder and pinch of salt and stir into the butter until the flour is nearly combined, but not quite
-
Mash 250g bananas roughly with a fork and add them to the mix along with the 130g crunchy peanut butter, 100g chocolate chips and 2 tbsp milk. Mix until combined
-
Tip into the lined tin and smooth. I then make a shallow indent down the middle to help even rising. Scatter over the additional chocolate chips if you're using them
-
Bake in the oven for 1 hour until a cocktail stick comes out clean. If it starts to get too brown, cover it loosely with tin foil
-
Allow to cool for around 30 minutes before removing from the tin and cooling completely on a wire rack
