Chocolate Peanut Butter Marbled Banana Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or 1/3 dark chocolate chips
    1/3 cup peanut butter chips
    2 medium bananas, mashed
    3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 cup packed brown sugar
    2 large eggs
    1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    1/2 cup milk
    1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch loaf pan.
    In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk in chocolate and peanut butter chips until combined.
    In a large mixing bowl, using a mixer on medium speed, beat together banana and peanut butter until creamy, about 1 minute.
    Beat in granulated sugar and brown sugar until creamy, about 1 minute.
    Beat in eggs and vanilla until combined.
    Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually beat in flour mixture, alternating with milk, until well combined (about 2 minutes).
    Divide half of the batter into medium bowl; sift in cocoa powder, and beat until combined.
    Alternate spoonfuls of banana batter and chocolate batter into the pan. When all the batter is in the pan, swirl a knife sparingly through the batters to marble them. Sprinkle with additional chocolate and peanut butter chips, if desired.
    Bake for 60-65 minutes or until bread pulls away from pan, is well risen, deep golden brown, and a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs attached. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour; run a knife around outer edges and invert onto wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
