Ingredients
For The Batter
- 6 tablespoons butter unsalted, softened
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup buttermilk see notes for swaps
- 2 medium bananas ripe, mashed with a fork
- 1 ¼ cup all purpose flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder unsweetened
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup peanut butter chips
For The Peanut Butter Crumb (optional)
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter
- 3 tablespoons white sugar
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 tablespoon butter melted, salted is fine. If using unsalted add a pinch of salt.
Instructions
For The Batter
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x5 loaf pan with parchment paper or grease it generously with oil.
- Cream together softened butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Scrape down the bowl with a spatula, then add one egg and mix well.
- Add vanilla and half of the buttermilk at a time. Mix slowly at first so it doesn't splash, then up to medium until smooth. Mash bananas in a medium sized bowl and add to the wet ingredients, mixing well.
- In a large bowl mix together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients half at a time. Mix first on low then on medium until the batter forms.
- With a silicone spaltula, stir in peanut butter chips to the batter. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
For The Crumb Topping (optional)
- Mix together flour, sugar, melted butter and peanut butter in a small bowl. Mix until a soft dough forms that you can pick up with your hands. Crumble the dough over the batter in the loaf pan to bake the crumb topping.
Baking The Peanut Butter Chocolate Bread
- Bake at 350 degrees for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes out of center clean.
- Let cool in the pan for a least 15 minutes or until the pan is cool to the touch. Remove the loaf and place on a wire cooling rack or a clean kitchen towel. Slice once cool and enjoy!
Notes
- **Nutrition information is calculated with optional peanut butter crumb included.
- Salted butter can be used in this flexible recipe. Omit the 1/4 teaspoon of salt if using salted butter.
- Buttermilk swaps- Add a teaspoon and a half of either lemon juice or vinegar to a glass measuring cup. Fill the measuring cup with milk up to the 1/2 cup mark. Stir and let this mixture sit for five minutes, then it is ready to be added to the recipe.
- Removing the loaf from the pan- Sometimes the loaf may get stuck in the pan, especially if you greased the pan instead of using parchment paper. Allowing the loaf to cool fully can help to make sure the chocolate peanut butter bread comes out of the pan cleanly. You may also need to run a spatula or a butter knife gently around the edge of the pan to help the bread to release if stuck.
