Chocolate peanut butter chip bread is a moist and decadent quick bread loaded with rich cocoa flavor and melty peanut butter chips. Perfect for breakfast, dessert, or a snack, it’s easy to make and freezer-friendly.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup milk (or buttermilk)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil (or melted butter)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter chips
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, milk, oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Fold in peanut butter chips and optional chocolate chips, if using. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Slice and serve.

Notes

  • Add a swirl of peanut butter on top for extra flair.
  • Use a mashed banana in the batter for more moisture.
  • Top with chopped nuts or oats before baking for texture.
  • Don’t overmix the batter to keep the bread tender.
  • Freezes well—wrap slices individually for grab-and-go snacks.
