This is a luxurious & different take on banana bread. For you baking purists out there it may not be your thing. BUT for those of you who are a tad adventurous and like a whole lot of good flavors combined in one- this will be your jam. Maybe literally… jam could be good at this. Anything & everything is good at this.

Ingredients

Peanut Butter Glaze

Pinch of salt
1 tbsp. Powdered sugar
1/2 cup Peanut butter, melted

Bread

6 slices Bacon, cooked and chopped
1/2 cup Peanut butter chips
1/2 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 Ripe bananas, mashed
1 tsp. Pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup Sour cream
1/2 cup Creamy peanut butter
1 Large egg plus egg yolk
1 cup Granulated sugar
1/4 cup Unsalted butter, melted
1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
1 tsp. Baking soda
2 cups All-purpose flour

Method

01

Preheat oven to 350℉.
02

Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and grease with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
03

In another large bowl, mix together butter, sugar, egg and egg yolk, peanut butter, sour cream and vanilla. Add mashed bananas and stir until combined.
04

Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and most of the bacon (reserve some for topping) and transfer to prepared loaf pan.
