Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Banana Bread Recipe

Paper Bag Method: Add your bananas to a paper bag along with an apple or a tomato. The gas produced by the apple or tomato will accelerate the ripening process of the bananas.

Microwave method: Prick the bananas you want to use with a fork and microwave for 30 seconds as a time until they’re softened. This way won’t produce the sweetness that naturally ripened bananas provide, but it will soften then so they’ll incorporate better.

Oven Method: Bake your bananas on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 300F for 15-20 minutes until they turn black. Then simply scoop out the insides to use in this recipe.
