ingredients
- 1⁄4 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup mashed ripe banana (about 2 medium)
- 1⁄3 cup plain fat-free yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 3⁄4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1⁄2 cup peanut butter chips
- 1⁄2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
directions
- In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until crumbly, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the bananas, yogurt, and vanilla. Combine the flours, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon; gradually beat into the butter mixture. Stir in peanut butter chips.
- Remove 1 cup batter to a small bowl; stir in chocolate until well blended. Pour half of remaining batter into a 9x5 inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray; top with half of the chocolate batter. Repeat layers. Cut through batter with a knife to swirl.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.

This is one delicious loaf! Used a little less sugar (maybe 3/4 cup) and used cinammon chips instead of peanut butter. Baked it for about 55 minutes and could have baked it a bit more as the center of the loaf was underbaked. Thanks Shelby! :)Reply
