Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan and then line with parchment paper so that it hangs over the two long sides.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together the banana, peanut butter, sugars, buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and fold together with a rubber spatula until completely combined and there are no spots with raw flour. Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top into an even layer. Bake until the loaf is golden brown and a toothpick or thin knife inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. If your bread appears to be browning too quickly, place a tented piece of foil over it (I did this at the 45-minute mark).
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely. The cooled bread should be wrapped tightly in plastic wrap; it can be stored at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Notes
- Nutritional values are based on one serving.
- Equipment: 8x4-inch loaf pan
- Nut Butter Substitutes: You can use Sunbutter, almond or cashew butter (make sure it does not have oil separation - I recommend Barney Butter), or Nutella.
- Mix-Ins: Use different types of chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans or peanuts work great!), raisins, or even cooked, chopped bacon bits.
- Storing: For moist banana bread, keep your loaf wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and then stored in an air-tight container for up to 5 days at room temperature.
- Freezing: You can store the whole loaf or slices of this banana bread in the freezer for up to 1 month. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then cover with foil. Leave wrapped while thawing.
- Converting to Muffins: Fill muffin cups two-thirds full and bake at 375 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
