Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.

Step 2

Combine oats, 1 cup flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder together in a bowl. Beat milk, applesauce, honey, peanut butter, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl until smooth; add eggs and mix well. Mix oats mixture into milk mixture until batter is just combined; stir in bananas. Pour 1/2 of the batter into the prepared baking pan.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until partially cooked, about 5 minutes. Remove pan from oven and cool completely.

Step 4

Mix milk chocolate chips, semisweet chocolate chips, and 1 teaspoon flour together in a bowl until chips are coated in flour, adding more flour if needed. Spread coated chips over the cooled loaf and top with remaining batter.

Step 5
