Prep Time:15 mins

Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 3 pieces (medium-sized) ripe bananas
  • 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 0.25 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 pieces large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.75 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.

Step 3

Add the peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), Greek yogurt, eggs, and vanilla extract to the bowl with the mashed bananas. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir the dry ingredients together until evenly mixed.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips, reserving a small handful to sprinkle on top of the batter if desired.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula and sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips over the surface.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached.

Step 9

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 before slicing.

Step 10

Serve slices of the banana bread on its own or with a smear of extra peanut butter if desired. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
