Yes, that’s right. A rich, dense banana bread with an extra touch of peanut butter and chocolate peanut butter cup bits throughout. This is a super-decadent banana bread – definitely more the dessert type than the breakfast type.
I was inspired by the Cookies & Cups blog posting for this bread that I found via Pinterest – I just adapted it using my existing favorite banana bread recipe. I also used the peanut butter cups from Trader Joe’s – they are much better than the Reese’s kind because they are made with real peanut butter. Plus, they have both a milk chocolate and a dark chocolate option (I used the milk). Either way, this bread is ridiculously good! I brought it to work and my office-mates loved me for it.
Total Time: 1 hour, 15 min.
