Ingredients
- 2 over-ripe medium bananas, mashed
- ¼ cup creamy natural peanut butter, + more for swirl on top
- ¼ cup any milk, almond, oat, cashew or cow’s milk
- 2 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups white whole wheat flour, spooned and leveled
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the peanut butter, milk, coconut oil, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir everything together until combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix the white whole wheat flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Optional: add ½ cup of chocolate chips if you want.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Optional: Spoon a little extra peanut butter on top of the batter and swirl it with a knife for a fun peanut butter swirl.
- Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
