Prep: 20 min. Bake: 40 min. + cooling Yield: 12 Servings

In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until crumbly. Add eggs, one 
at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the bananas, 
yogurt and vanilla. Combine the flours, baking soda, salt and 
cinnamon; gradually add to butter mixture just until moistened. Fold 
in peanut butter chips.

Remove 1 cup batter to a small bowl; stir in chocolate until well 
blended. Pour half of the remaining plain batter into a 9" x 5" loaf 
pan coated with cooking spray; top with half of the chocolate batter. 
Repeat layers. Cut through batter with a knife to swirl.

Bake at 350F for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the 
center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan 
to a wire rack.

Yield: 1 loaf (12 slices)
