Servings: 10 servings
Equipment
- 9x5 loaf pan
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla paste or extract
- 3/4 cup half and half or buttermilk
- 1 1/3 cup semi sweet or dark chocolate chips, divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F Lightly grease and line a 9x5 loaf pan with a sheet of parchment paper. This will allow you to lift it out easily after baking.
- Sift the flour, baking powder, soda, and salt together and set aside.
- Whisk or beat the peanut butter, sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla together in a mixing bowl. Make sure to beat well so it is all evenly combined.
- Add the dry ingredients alternately to the bowl with the half and half, beginning and ending with the dry. Fold in one cup of the chocolate chips.
- Spread the batter into your prepared pan and smooth out the top. The batter will seem a bit greasy at this point. Top the bread with the reserved 1/3 cup of chips and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out without wet batter on it. I like to tend the bread with foil after about 40 minutes so the top doesn't brown too much.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then gently lift it out to a rack. Try to let the bread cool a bit more before slicing, but I can never wait very long...it's amazing warm.
