“I created these easy muffins after I'd stocked up on too much candy and banana bread mix,” writes Teresa Heavilin of Kokomo, Indiana. “My family loves the peanut-butter surprise, and these muffins were a huge hit at a church potluck.” TIP: Not a fan of banana bread? Try a different quick bread and muffin mix instead.
