Hello lovelies, ever since Corona and lockdown the world is baking banana bread! For whatever reason, it has become the most popular pastry of the time. I have had a super delicious version for you for a long time that I would like to share with you today: peanut butter banana bread. The banana bread with peanut butter doesn’t require any additional fat and turns out very fluffy thanks to the addition of yogurt.

I already have some versions of banana bread on the blog here, but this is definitely my new favorite, with crispy peanuts, delicious chocolate pieces and lots of peanut butter on top.

Peanut butter banana breadIt’s best to use peanut butter without sugar for this recipe. In general I would recommend you to buy the sugar free version only, because sugar is really not necessary. A good peanut butter tastes well with exactly 2 ingredients: roasted peanuts and a little salt. You don't need anything else and you can do it at home, I already have a recipe for it here. You can even completely leave out the sugar for this banana bread, the sweetness of the chocolate and the bananas make it so sweet already. But that's a matter of taste.

What I find most important about banana bread is that it gets real fluffy and it definitely will - even without eggs and butter. Be sure to give it a try, or did you already bake a banana bread during the lockdown? If you are still looking for other recipes to use the ripe bananas, then have a look here where you will find even more ideas.
