(Vegan) Peanut Butter-Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

This can be made standard or vegan or dairy free... my modifications are noted by the bold italics.

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 medium ripe mashed bananas
• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted   
• (3 tablespoons non-dairy margarine, I used Nucoa brand)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
• 2 large eggs 
• (I used the equivalent to this in egg substitute)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup milk 
• (I used Blue Diamond Vanilla almond milk)
• 1 cup chocolate chips 
• (check ingredients, most store brands are made with soy and are vegan)
• 1/2 cup chopped unsalted  
• (mine were salted so I rinsed them off in a strainer and patted them dry)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons turbinado sugar, optional

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Oil and flour a 9 inch loaf pan.

In a medium sized mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

In a large mixing bowl, using a mixer on medium speed, beat together banana, peanut butter, 2 tablespoons margarine, granulated sugar and brown sugar until creamy, about 2 minutes; stir in eggs (replacer) and vanilla extract until combined. Reduce mixer speed to low and beat in milk and flour mixture until just combined; stir in chocolate chips and peanuts.

Pour batter into prepared pan; bake for 50 minutes. Remove pan from oven, melt additional tablespoon butter, brush evenly over the top, and top with turbinado sugar. Continue to bake an additional 5 minutes or until golden brown.

Cool completely before removing from the pan and slicing ... or take it out immediately and force it upon others like I did.
