Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two loaf pans with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine smooth peanut butter, softened butter, and pure vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Gradually add granulated sugar and light brown sugar, continuing to beat for an additional 2 minutes until smooth.
  4. Add large eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
  5. Gradually mix in self-rising flour and plain Greek yogurt, folding gently to avoid overmixing.
  6. Fold in the mashed ripe bananas and chopped Reese’s cups carefully.
  7. Evenly divide the batter between the two loaf pans and smooth the tops.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Check for browning and cover with aluminum foil if necessary, baking for an additional 15-20 minutes.
  9. Remove from oven, let cool in pans for about 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
