Here is a more pedantic approach to @amsmath's slick approach:
Suppose we want to solve $(A^-1 + B^-1) x = A^-1x + B^-1 x = y$.
Then $Ay=x + AB^-1 x $, and letting $x'=B^-1 x$ we get
$Ay = B x' + A x' = (A+B)x'$ and so $x'= (A+B)^-1 Ay$ and finally
$x=Bx' = B(A+B)^-1 Ay$.
Hence $(A^-1 + B^-1)^-1 = B(A+B)^-1 A$.

Of course you know that a square matrix has a two sided inverse if you have found an inverse from one side.

Here is a more pedantic approach to @amsmath's slick approach:
Suppose we want to solve $(A^-1 + B^-1) x = A^-1x + B^-1 x = y$.
Then $Ay=x + AB^-1 x $, and letting $x'=B^-1 x$ we get
$Ay = B x' + A x' = (A+B)x'$ and so $x'= (A+B)^-1 Ay$ and finally
$x=Bx' = B(A+B)^-1 Ay$.
Hence $(A^-1 + B^-1)^-1 = B(A+B)^-1 A$.
