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 added choc. chips to the recipe, I should have reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup. Also, the peanut butter flavor was lacking! My hubby liked it anyways...he likes everything I make! ;)

I made this for my mother who loves pb with bananas. i thought it was good but u taste the pb as an after taste. i thought the batter was thick so i split it in half and made 2 loaves and cut the cooking time in half. inside was moist and outside not burnt!

it is not to diabetic friendly,so i will use sugar twin for sugar & half the flour will be whole wheat, & add sugar free chocolate chips.

This recipe is easy and delicious. Even my very picky son likes it. After tasting it, everyone thought it could use chocolate chips, so next time I made it, I added the chips and it's even better. I did decrease the cooking time to 65 minutes and it still gets too well done on the outside. Next time will try 60 minutes.

I cook at an assisted living ctr and needed a new recipe to try using ripe banans. The residents loved it and they want me to make it again. It was moist and very tasty.

The flavor is good, one of my favorite combinations. I used a silicone loaf pan, and it took the full 70 minutes to cook through, the outside did not burn, but it came out a little dry. Going to add an additional egg next time and see if it will come out a little moister.

The outside was burned with more than 15 minutes left on the timer, but the inside was yummy!

This turned out terrible. Outside burns before inside is done. Even tasted yucky. Would not make this again.
