Directions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 5x9 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, applesauce, peanut butter, and mashed bananas then beat well. Stir in the flour, baking powder, and baking soda until just blended. Fold in chocolate chips. Spread into the greased pan.

If you don't have apple sauce, you can substitute equal amounts of vegetable oil.
You can omit the chocolate chips OR replace them with chopped pecans or walnuts.
