Peanut Butter, Banana, Chocolate Chip Bread

[whigsgirl]

To call this 'bread' and not cake really should be illegal, because this is definitely more sinful than mere 'bread'!  Super good stuff, although recommend cooking a bit longer, as the applesauce and banana-moisture combination makes for a super-gooey center if not thoroughly cooked.  Skipped the frosting and it was still fantastic, but if I do this again I'll likely make it in cupcake form and try that topping suggestion!

I LOOOVE this  I followed the recipe, but used whole wheat pastry flour, instead of the white flour and it turned out great. My husband loved it also. A keeper for sure! Thanks for sharing.

this recipe does not really need the bananas. i made the loaf without them and it came out just fine. i'm not really a fan of using bananas in baked goods b/c it has such an overwhelming taste that i prefer to substitute them or blatantly ignore them. so if anyone else is like me and doesn't care much for bananas, then know that excluding the bananas wont significantly alter the finished product. 

another loaf is baking in the oven at this very moment as i type. i used apple butter in lieu of apple sauce...b/c i never have apple sauce just hanging around the house. i hope it taste just as dee-lish. i'll be commenting on the taste and overall outcome of the newest loaf once it's done cooking. thanks for the recipe!!

This was a huge hit! The only complaint I got was that it was TOO sweet. I thought it was superb!    The recipe was kind of big and I couldn’t keep most of it in the house so I gave a lot of it away. Probably will hold off on making it again until a huge party or potluck. Five stars though, very very good.

Definitely tasty, however one note, if you are using natural peanut butter (no salt), be sure to add some to the bread, it needs it!!

Okay... so the first time I made this it was absolutely delicious.All my non veg family/friends LOVED it! But the second time, it came out thick and wouldn't cook thoroughly- but I did nothing different. Did anyone have to adjust the times or temperature, or have a similar problem with it? I loved it and totally want to make it again but I don't want to mess it up. Any suggestions?

This was very nice but didn't work out too well.
It just wouldn't bake in the middle. Followed the recipe perfectly.
Had to eat it kind of raw.. Oh well still tasted good

Very nice recipe. I used about 1/2 cup applesauce because other reviewers said it was dry. It turned out moist and delicious. I'll definitely make this again.

I made muffins...and they were...the most...PERFECT muffins I've EVER had  !  The only thing I changed, was that I used 1/2 cup of applesauce.  They are simply DIVINE!  Everyone loved them.  I may be taking these for our Thanksgiving gathering  .
