Ingredients
  

  • 4 large ripe bananas smashed (about 2 cups or 450 grams)
  • 3 large eggs (150 grams)
  • 1 cup salted butter room temperature (113 grams)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (107 grams)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (99 grams)
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter (90 grams)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (240 grams)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda (6 grams)
  • 2 cups Reeses Peanut Butter Cups roughly chopped and divided (about 350 grams)

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Electric mixer
  • Rubber spatula
  • Bread pan
  • Cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking.
  2. Grease your loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray, or line it with parchment paper.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the room temperature butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add the creamy peanut butter and mix until well combined. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the smashed bananas.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking soda.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding everything together with a rubber spatula.
  6. Fold in 1.5 cups of chopped Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, reserving the remaining 0.5 cup for topping.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the remaining Reeses Peanut Butter Cups on top.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, try adding chopped walnuts in the batter.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • For a fruity twist, include fresh blueberries in the batter.
