Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Recipes

Steps:

• For the banana bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 9-by-5-inch loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine the cake mix, oil, mashed bananas, eggs and 1/2 cup water in a large bowl and mix with a hand mixer or whisk until well blended, about 2 minutes. Fold in the peanut butter chips. Evenly divide the batter between the 2 prepared loaf pans.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool on a cooling rack.
• For the peanut butter glaze: Combine the confectioners' sugar, peanut butter and 3 tablespoons of the warm milk in a bowl and whisk until smooth. It should be about as thick as pancake batter; if it's too thick, just add a little more milk.
• Pour some of the glaze over each loaf and let set for about 10 minutes. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• Grease the bottom and 1/2 inch up the sides of two loaf pans; set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl stir together the eggs, bananas, sugar, peanut butter, and milk.
• Stir in the flour just until moistened (batter should be lumpy).
• Fold in chocolate pieces and peanuts or pecans.
• Spoon batter into the prepared pans.
• Bake in a 350°F oven about 45 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
• Cool in pans on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
• Remove loaves from pans.
• Cool completely on a wire rack.
• Wrap and store overnight for easier slicing.
• **If you do not have self-rising flour, substitute with 2 cups all-purpose flour plus 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoons baking soda.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Line loaf pan with foil (makes clean up much easier).
• In a bowl combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
• In a separate bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar.
• Stir in eggs, vanilla, and mashed bananas until well blended.
• Stir chips into wet mixture.
• Stir banana mixture into flour mixture; stir by hand until it is mostly mixed. (This is important. Do not over-mix, or it will be dry and rubbery! It's ok to see flour spots here and there in the batter.).
• Pour batter into loaf pan. Bake in oven for about 45 minutes (I only have one loaf pan so cooking time might vary if cooking two loaves at once).
• Let bread cool for about 10 minutes, then remove from pan and let cool on wire rack.
