Bananas and chunky peanut butter complement each other in this quick bread, which bakes to a beautiful golden brown. It's a fun change of pace from typical banana breads.

I substituted 1/2 the butter with apple sauce, splenda sugar blend for the sugar and added 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips. Took about 65-70 minutes in a convection oven. Moist and tasty - more peanut butter than banana flavor - might cut down the pb next time

Yes, what could be better than peanut butter and bananas!!

Certainly NOT this recipe! The crust was well overdone at the 60 minute mark, while Ms. Toothpick said not!!

Turned the oven down and waited until TP said 'almost'! Removed and waited!

It was brick hard on the outside, dry on the inside, with the exception being this 'tunnel of batter' running through the center!

I did try to salvage the edible parts by cutting off the crust and hollowing out the center! That left about 2 bites per thick slice.

Total disappointment!!

Tasted bland. I even used 3 bananas instead of 2. Not worth making.

I would add 3 bananas instead of 2. It needs more banana flavor.

Just a great bread and so moist. I use applesauce instead of oil or butter. Really, really a good tasting bread.

This is so cool, the only thing I changed was I always use applesauce instead of oil or butter. Many years of doing that. Very good recipe & I will make it again. Thank you all for the recipe..

This recipe smelled AMAZING while cooking, but at 60 minutes in the oven it started to smell burnt. Checked it...totally burnt! I think the time needs to be adjusted on this recipe. I've never burned anything in my life!!!!

I made these into muffins and made a few substitions--creamy peanut butter (I prefer it to chunky), applesauce instead of butter, and flax seed w/ water instead of eggs. They were moist and delicious!
