Loaded Banana Bread

So, I came up with this today while cleaning out the pantry. A few weeks ago, a family friend was cleaning his house up and getting rid of things that he no longer needed. Since his wife is no longer living with him, he had no need for all the baking supply she left at the house nor did she want them. Being the kind person he is, he gave all of it to me! And there was a lot!

I got so much that I was seriously overwhelmed! I didn't know what to do with all of it! I'd never had so many things to make! Nonetheless, I was so happy to know that I had to many hings to use to bake with. And today I was trying to clean it up and decided to whip this up.

This Banana Bread serious is loaded. With Peanut M&M's, Peanut Butter Chips, Dark Chocolate Chips and Walnuts; It's just love in a loaf of bread.
