Reese’s Peanut Butter Banana Bread

I’m a Pinterest addict. I admit it. I probably need a 12-step program because I cannot tell you how many times a day I look at it. This is especially bad because not only are there neato home and craft ideas, but bazillions of yummy recipes. And I want to make them all! This is not good for a dieter.

So when I’m having something at my house, I see that as my chance to make something delectable without feeling guilty because I’ll only take a bite to taste it. I decided to make this absolutely sinful banana bread for a playdate and it was a huge hit. It was sooo freaking good. I went ahead and threw in a quarter of a pack of chocolate chips because heck, why not! It was so rich and packed with chocolately goodness! There was one small piece left and I made sure my husband ate it, I could not be trusted alone in the house with this bread!

Reese's Peanut Butter Banana Bread

Reese’s Peanut Butter Banana Bread (with chocolate chips!!)
Recipe from Cookies and Cups

Ingredients:
3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup oil
1/2 cup white granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1.5 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1.5 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
8 oz bag Mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups (look in the candy section)
1/4 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, mix together the bananas, sugars, egg and oil. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda.
Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and stir until well blended.
Fold in the peanut butter cups and chocolate chips then pour into a loaf pan that has been coated with nonstick spray.
Bake 50 minutes to an hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the bread comes out clean. If the bread is browning too quickly, you can lower the heat a little.
