Chocolate Peanut Butter Loaf

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Servings 10

Ingredients
  

  • 8 Tbs Vegetable Oil 118ml
  • cups Granulated Sugar 250g
  • cup Creamy Peanut Butter 180g
  • 3 Tbs Flax Meal 24g
  • ½ cup Hot Water 118ml
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract 10ml
  • ¾ cup Plant Milk 177ml
  • 1 Tbs Vinegar 15ml
  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour 250g
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda

For the Drizzle *optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F & then grease a standard sized loaf pan
  • Combine the flax meal with the warm water & set aside to thicken about 5 minutes.
  • Add the vinegar to the plant milk & then add the vanilla extract
  • Heat the peanut butter so it is more liquid & it will mix into the recipe better
  • In a large mixing bowl combine the warmed peanut butter, sugar, oil, flax paste mixture & the plant milk mixture whisk smooth
  • Sift the flour with the baking powder & soda then add it to the bowl & whisk to a smooth batter
  • Fold in the chocolate chips & then pour the batter into your prepared pan & bake at 350℉ for the first 20 minutes then turn the oven down to 300℉ to bake the rest of the way (approximately 20-30 minutes more or when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs not raw batter)
    Because this is a long bake time you can drape a foil loosely over top to prevent too much browning, although this is precisely why I finish the bake at 300℉
  • Meanwhile prepare the ganache recipe *if using
  • When the loaf is cool drizzle with ganache & peanut butter
