Banana Peach Bread

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon instant hot chocolate mix
• 3 bananas, peeled
• 1 large fresh peach – peeled, pitted, and diced
• 1/4 cup milk
• 2 eggs
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease the bottom of a 5×9-inch loaf pan.

Beat white sugar and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add brown sugar and hot chocolate mix; stir well.

Place bananas, peach, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract in a blender; blend until smooth. Stir into butter mixture until well incorporated.

Mix flour, walnuts, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl; stir into banana-butter mixture until flour mixture is just moistened. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of bread comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Cool in pan for 5 minutes before transferring bread to a wire rack to cool completely.
