Peanut Butter Cup Banana Bread Takes A Classic To the Next Level!

We all know and love banana bread. It’s one of those recipes that almost everyone loves, and has a recipe for, whether it be their grandma’s or one they developed on their own. It’s easy to make, a great use of bananas that are about to expire, and well…most importantly…it’s delicious!

So what I have doe today is made a moist, sweet banana bread recipe, but I’ve added a little peanut butter to add a nutty flavor along with miniature peanut butter cups. This is a chocolate/peanut butter lovers dream!

But is Peanut Butter Banana Bread GOOD?

Peanut butter and bananas are a combination that has been around for ages. Have you ever had a peanut butter and banana sandwich? This is the same vibe!

The peanut butter flavor in this bread is subtle and not overwhelming, but adds a depth and a nuttiness that combines perfectly.

I actually developed this recipe way back in 2011, but decided the pictures and recipe needed a little updating. The recipe itself stayed pretty much the same, with a few very minor tweaks, and the images…well…they now look as delicious as the bread tastes!

Ingredients:

all purpose flour

baking soda

baking powder

kosher salt

mashed banana

peanut butter

vegetable oil

eggs

granulated sugar

miniature peanut butter cups

Tips When Making This Banana Bread:

If you don’t use parchment paper or just don’t have it on-hand, make sure to grease your loaf pan well! Sounds like a simple thing, but this recipe has a fair amount of added sugar and will stick to the top and sides as it rises!

Don’t over-mix banana bread batter. It might seem lumpy, but that’s ok! If you over-mix the bread will become too dense and a little crumbly!

If you can’t find the mini peanut butter cups you can chop larger ones, OR use chocolate chunk in their place.

I don’t recommend using natural or homemade peanut butter in this recipe.
