Peanut Butter Banana Bread - a protein packed and delicious snack! This take on classic banana bread will soon become your favorite quick bread recipe!

This peanut butter banana bread recipe is loosely based off of a recipe I shared a couple of years ago for Sour Cream Banana Muffins. It got a nice creamy and fluffy texture, and the chocolate and peanut butter chips add another level of texture and flavor. It really is amazing! Plus it’s a quick bread which means no waiting for dough to rise. You have delicious warm, sweet bread in just over an hour!

I enjoyed a slice with peanut butter spread on it with my coffee each morning for a week. You could spread it with Nutella, or even just enjoy it by itself.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup butter, at room temperature 1 stick
  • 1/2 cup of your favorite peanut butter
