Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bread

I made some Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bread last night in my bread machine, it turned out a little different than I expected, but it's pretty good. It's from The Bread Machine Cookbook II by Donna Rathmell German. It is a really good cookbook with tons of recipes. I definitely recommend buying these.



Here's the recipe for a 2lb Bread maker (which is what I have):

1 3/4 cups Milk
3/4 cup Peanut Butter
3 tbs. Honey
1 tsp. Salt
2 1/2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
2 1/2 cups Bread Flour
2 tsp. Yeast
3/4 cup Chocolate Chips*

*Add chocolate chips at the beginning of the second kneading period.

Cook on the Raisin, Sweet, Wheat or Basic cycle





It's moist, but dense. Not light an fluffy at all. I was surprised how heavy it was when I took it out of the pan. And I don't know if it's supposed to do like this, but the chocolate chips melted and mixed in with the bread, I think it mixed too long because I used the Wheat cycle. Next time I'll use the Sweet or Basic cycle.

I toasted a slice and put some jelly on it for breakfast this morning and it was really good! Now I can have PB&J with the Peanut Butter baked right into crust =P
