It also pairs well with a cup of coffee or tea. This bread can be enjoyed plain or with toppings like butter, honey, or even a drizzle of chocolate sauce.

How to store Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

To store your peanut butter chocolate chip banana bread, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. It can be kept at room temperature for 2-3 days.

Thaw at room temperature or microwave for a quick snack.

Tips to make Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness; the more spots on the banana, the better!
Don’t overmix the batter; mix until just combined to keep the bread light and fluffy.
Feel free to add nuts like walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.
Experiment with different types of chocolate chips, like dark chocolate or white chocolate.

Variation

You can try substituting almond butter or cashew butter for the peanut butter if you want a different flavor. For a healthier option, you can use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour or reduce the sugar by a small amount.

FAQs

Can I make this banana bread vegan?
Yes! You can replace the eggs with unsweetened applesauce (1/4 cup per egg) and use a plant-based butter and peanut butter.

Can I use frozen bananas?
Yes, you can use frozen bananas. Just thaw them out completely, drain any excess liquid, and mash them before mixing into the batter.

How can I tell when the banana bread is done?
Insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf. If it comes out clean or with a few crumbs, the bread is done. If it has wet batter, it needs more time in the oven.
