Rich Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bread
Recipes Bread Cakes Desserts
Description
Warning: This decadent bread/dessert is not for the faint of heart! It has chocolate peanut butter swirled thoughout and dark chocolate chunks on top. It is not a skinny recipe! What can I say? It's worth it!

5 tbl. chocolate peanut butter (I used Dark Chocolate Dreams)
3 tbl. plus 1 tsp. canola oil, divided

1/2 cu. brown sugar, packed
2 medium ripe bananas, sliced
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cu. all-purpose flour

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate peanut butter and 1 tsp. of the oil. Microwave on high until melted, about 30 seconds; stir. Combine 3 tbl. oil, butter, brown sugar and banana in a large bowl, and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until well-combined. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. With the mixer running at low speed, all the flour mixture and the buttermilk alternately to banana mixture, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Pour half of the batter into a greased 9x5 in. loaf pan. Top with peanut butter mixtures. Spread the remaining batter over the top. Using a wooden pick or knife, gently swirl the batter. Sprinkle the top of the batter with dark chocolate chunks.
Bake for 55 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs clinging. Cool 10 min. in the pan on a wire rack. Remove the bread from the pan, then allow to cool completely on rack.
