Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Quick Bread for #BreadBakers

This Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Quick Bread is a delightful treat or snack for kids of all ages. Serve it and watch the smiles appear!

It is early morning about an hour before sunrise. The world outside is quiet and still. Even crickets in the swamp are not chirping. I’m sitting here writing with Milo by my side. Or trying to write. It’s another one of those times when words are not coming easy. At least I have something tasty on the kitchen counter waiting for me to eat. Yep, I’m looking forward to a big slice of Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Quick Bread.

Bread Bakers time rolled around again. It seems like a minute since the last one. How do these months fly by so fast? I blame Milo for time slipping by so quickly lately. There is always something with a puppy. Plus I’ve added going on walks with him to my routine. Having fun and getting exercise at the same time is a good thing.

The theme is a super duper one. Our host Shireen of Ruchik Randhap (Delicious Cooking) specified to use cacao, cocoa, or carob in any form. That meant chocolate. Oh yea! And oh the possibilities. So. Many. Possibilities. I decided to go with one of my all-time favorite combinations; chocolate and peanut butter. Plus I had a partial bag of peanut butter chips after making Double Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Quick Bread is for snacking. A slice with a glass of milk is heavenly. I recommend warming the slice for a few seconds in the microwave. It’s chocolate-y, peanut buttery, lightly sweet, and splurge-worthy.

The photo is really nice. I'm going to try and get peanut butter chips during my next trip abroad, so I can make this bread.
