  • 1/8 teaspoon ground Himalayan pink salt
  • 4 large overripe bananas, mashed
  • 2 large free-range eggs, beaten
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar

How To Make peanut butter banana bread

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease and flour a loaf pan; set aside.
  • Step 2
    In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until mixed and set aside.
  • Step 3
    In the bowl of a stand mixer, add bananas, eggs, sugar, melted peanut butter, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  • Step 4
    Using the paddle attachment, start on low speed then increase to medium-high, and process until everything is blended; about 2 minutes.
  • Step 5
    Add dry ingredients, and process on low speed until the mixture is just incorporated – don’t overmix it; clean the sides and the bottom of the bowl.
  • Step 6
    Fold in semi-sweet chocolate before pouring the batter into the prepared loaf pan; level it out.
  • Step 7
    Transfer to the preheated oven and bake for 75 to 80 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean with just a few crumbs.
  • Step 8
    Remove from the heat and let it sit in the pan for 15 minutes. Unmold and transfer to a wire rack. Allow to cool completely.
