Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 180 °C and line a loaf pan carefully with baking paper to prevent sticking.
2
In a large bowl, thoroughly mash the ripe bananas with a fork until you get a smooth, almost liquid puree.
3
Add the natural peanut butter, Greek yogurt, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract to the banana puree. Mix everything well with a hand whisk into a uniform wet mixture.
4
Then pour the oat flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt into the bowl. Gently fold with a spatula so the dry and wet ingredients combine—be careful not to overmix the batter.
5
Gently fold three quarters of the dark chocolate chunks into the batter, then pour the mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate on top.
6
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. The bread is fully baked when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
7
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing, so it keeps its firm structure.
