Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease or line 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Mash bananas in large bowl. Whisk in melted butter, brown sugar, peanut butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. In medium bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

  5. Fold in chocolate chips and any optional add-ins.
  6. Pour batter into pan, smooth top.
  7. Bake 60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean or with moist crumbs. Tent foil after 45 min if browning fast.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for best moisture.
  • Toss chips in 1–2 Tbsp flour to prevent sinking.
