How to Make Reese’s Peanut Butter Banana Bread

Step 1: Preheat & Prep

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth. Stir in the melted butter, peanut butter, sugars, egg, and vanilla. Mix until well combined.

Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients

Sprinkle in the baking soda and salt. Stir in the flour gradually until just combined—don’t overmix. Fold in the chopped Reese’s cups and optional add-ins.

Step 4: Pour and Bake

Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle extra chopped Reese’s on top for a gooey, melty finish. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean (a few moist crumbs are okay!).

Step 5: Cool and Slice

Let the banana bread cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice once fully cooled—or dig in a little warm if you can’t wait (we don’t blame you!).
