Notes
- To make butter milk, mix 1/3 cup milk with 1/2 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar. You can also use Greek yogurt instead of buttermilk.
- The riper the bananas, the moister the banana bread is going to be. Use bananas that are completely ripe and have brown spots all over them.
- To make peanut butter chocolate chip banana bread add 3/4 cup chocolate chips to the batter at the end and fold in gently.
- You can use wither creamy or chunky peanut butter for this recipe. If using natural peanut butter, make sure you stir it completely before using.
- Have all the ingredients at room temperature for better results.
- Check the banana bread after 45 minutes of baking and if the top is brown but the middle is still doughy, cover with aluminum foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes.
