Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip LoafI’ve been looking for some delicious new ways to incorporate peanut butter into my baked goods. After doing some research on the internet, I found this recipe for bread that uses a whole cup of peanut butter. Finally, I thought, there should be some real peanut butter flavour in this. The recipe I found was on the blog She Wears Many Hats. What I found interesting about her recipe is that she mixes her ingredients in the blender. Though the idea intrigued me, I’m afraid my blender quit on me and I haven’t gotten around to replacing it. So I decided that I would make this bread using my mixer.

The recipe was so simple and I didn’t want to change that, so all I did in my version was to use some whole wheat flour, replaced the granulated sugar with brown sugar and added some chocolate chips to make the kiddies happy. This Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Loaf was delicious and so quick and easy to make.

There are so many ways to eat this bread: plain, toasted with butter and honey, jelly or even Nutella (my favourite way so far). It makes a great snack for kids with a glass of milk. In case you want to make this recipe in the blender, here is the link to the original recipe.
