Reese's Peanut Butter Banana Bread - Sarah Ricks

3 very ripe banana, mashed
1/2 c. peanut butter
1/4 c. oil
1 egg
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1/4 c. brown sugar
1 1/2 c. of all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
8 oz. bag of Reese's Mini cups

Preheat oven to 350. Grease your loaf pan (I used an 8x4 pan) with butter or shortening.  In a medium bowl whisk together your flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt, set aside.  In a large bowl stir together your bananas, peanut butter, oil, egg and sugars.  Pour your dry ingredients into your wet ingredients and stir until just combined.  Batter will be lumpy. DO NOT OVER-STIR.  Fold in your Reese's Mini cups and spread batter into prepared pan.  Bake for approx. 1 hour or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.  Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then loosen the edges of the pan with a knife and remove from loaf pan, transferring bread to a cooling rack.
