Peanut Butter Chocolate Banana Loaf

Ingredients:

• 3 ripe bananas

• 1/2 cup natural peanut butter

• 1/4 cup good quality maple syrup

• 2 tbsp avocado oil (can sub other oil if you prefer)

• 1 cup brown rice flour

• 1/2 cup tapioca flour

• 1/2 cup coconut flour

• 1/2 cup dairy free dark chocolate chips

• 1 tsp vanilla

• 1 tsp baking soda

• 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar

• pinch of salt

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 350F.

2. In a medium mixing bowl, mash the bananas so that there are no large chunks left.

3. Add in maple syrup, 1/4 cup of the peanut butter (you can melt it in the microwave for a few seconds so that it mixes in more smoothly), oil, vanilla, and apple cider vinegar. Make sure everything is mixed in thoroughly.

4. In a separate bowl, lightly whisk together the flours, baking soda, and salt.

5. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet and mix well. Make sure you scrape the bottom because dry flour loves to hangout there.

6. Fold in the chocolate chips (save a few to top the loaf with).

7. Pour about half of the batter into an oiled loaf pan and then dollop a few spoonfuls of the remaining peanut butter. Using a knife, swirl the peanut butter into the batter. Pour the rest of the batter over top and repeat the swirling process with the remaining peanut butter. Top with chocolate chips set aside from earlier.

8. Bake at 350F for 1 hour. Allow to cool 10-15 minutes before removing from pan. Store at room temperature or in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Enjoy :)
