Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar
- 85 grams unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons peanut butter (creamy)
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth and creamy. Stir in the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and melted butter until well-combined.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the banana mixture. Mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly into two bowls. To one bowl, stir in the cocoa powder until fully incorporated. To the other bowl, stir in the peanut butter and milk until smooth and creamy.
Spoon alternating dollops of the chocolate batter and peanut butter batter into the prepared loaf pan, layering them until all the batter is used up.
Using a knife or skewer, gently swirl the two batters together to create a marbled effect. Be careful not to overmix.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the banana bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and enjoy this delicious Chocolate Peanut Butter Marbled Banana Bread for breakfast, dessert, or a tasty snack.
