Instructions
 

  • Line a 9-inch | 22 cm pan like you would usually do and set aside. NOTE: For this recipe, I used my Round Mold placed on top of a medium perforated baking sheet. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350F/180C.

BAKE!

  • Bake for 25 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cake from 22 minutes). It is ready when the toothpick inserted comes out clean or with little to no crumbs.
  • Once your Reese's Peanut Butter Banana Bread is out of the oven, let it cool down for a few minutes in the mold before unmolding onto your service platter.

TOPPINGS

  • Warm both the peanut butter and Nutella into 2 separate microwave safe bowls at 10 seconds intervals until you get a runny texture.
    Spoon over cake. Enjoy & Bon Appétit!
    NOTE: This Banana Bread is best enjoyed the day of. Wrap left over cake in plastic film and store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
