Chocolate Peanut Butter Quick Bread

January 23, 2019 by Kristin Leave a Comment

A moist, flavorful and soft quick bread that is quick to prepare and great for breakfast, snack, or as a sweet treat!

This past Monday, my kids had no school due to Martin Luther King Jr Day. I spent the morning cleaning the house while they played, no fair, right? But, that afternoon, my daughter asked if we could bake together. We immediately rummaged through the pantry and came across a bag of peanut butter chips. I was thinking of making a cookie recipe, but when my daughter pulled out the mini loaf pans, we went that direction and make bread!

My daughter ended up making this almost completely on her own, with me only supervising. With only about a cup of flour ending up on my floor, I’d even say it was fairly clean to make, haha!

The batter itself was quite thick, but made enough for three mini loaves. You can also make into muffins or one large loaf if desired though.

If you’re not a fan of peanut butter, you can change this up by using chocolate chips instead. It would make it a double chocolate bread, versus peanut butter!

Once the breads came out of the oven, we immediately cut into it and the end product was fabulous. Moist, flavorful, and just the right amount of peanut butter.

My kids enjoyed this as their afternoon snack, however, my hubby and I had this as an evening sweet treat since it has a cake like resemblance. My hubby added a small scoop of ice-cream to his to create a “sundae”.

If you’re having family, friends, or company over, this would be a great treat to serve! Or, if you don’t need all three loaves immediately, freeze some for later!

Enjoy!!
