Method

Butter a 2 litre baking dish and heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Melt the butter and peanut butter together in a pan until runny and smooth.

Put the flour, baking powder, sugar and cocoa powder together in a large mixing bowl. Mash the bananas well, then whisk with the eggs and milk. Tip into the dry ingredients with the nutty butter and stir together until smooth. Stir in the chocolate chunks and pour into the baking dish.
