Banana Peanut Butter Chocolate Quick Bread

When you cannot decide whether to have chocolate or banana or peanut butter, have them all in one cake! Quick bread, in this case :)

 

 

 

Recipe is from IG @neuroticmommy

 

 

 

What you need:

 

1/3 cup creamy peanut butter, melted

3/4 cup sugar

3 medium bananas, mashed

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup cooking oil (I used rice bran)

2 eggs

1/2 cup cocoa powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

pinch of salt

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour

2 bananas, sliced for topping

a mixture of sugar and brown sugar to caramelize the bananas for topping

Option for topping: drizzle of melted warm peanut butter, and melted dark chocolate

 

Method:

• Preheat oven to 175degC. Grease and line loaf pan (20x10cm)
• Mix in peanut butter, banana, vanilla, oil, eggs. In another bowl, mix in sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, salt, flour
• Pour in wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined
• Bake for about an hour until the skewer test comes out clean
• For the banana topping: In a small glass pot, combine sugar mixture and sliced bananas and cook over low heat til sugar melted and slightly caramelized
• Just before serving, scoop the topping over the slice and serve. Best to serve warm
