Ingredients
-
4 of whole overripe bananas
-
1/3 cup of melted butter
-
3/4 cups of white sugar
-
1/4 cups of turbinado sugar
-
1 of whole egg
-
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
-
1 teaspoon of baking soda
-
1 pinch of salt
-
1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
-
1 pinch of ground nutmeg
-
1-1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
Steps
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
- Melt butter over medium heat. Swirl the pan occasionally to be sure the butter is cooking evenly. As the butter melts, it will begin to foam. The color will progress from lemony-yellow to golden-tan to, finally a toasty-brown. Once you smell the nutty aroma, take the pan off the heat and transfer the browned butter into a heat-proof bowl to cool.
- Put the peeled bananas into a large mixing bowl and smash with a wooden spoon. Add the melted butter and mix together with the spoon.
- Add the sugars, egg, and vanilla, stirring to combine.
- Add the flour last and mix.
- Pour mixture into a buttered 4×8" loaf pan.
- Sprinkle generous amounts of turbinado sugar on top of the mixture in the loaf pan.
- Bake for one hour. Cool on rack before removing from the pan to serve.
This recipe makes a version of one that I remember my Grandmother making routinely. It is a great way of using bananas that have slipped a bit past their prime and makes a delicious snack, dessert or. We wanted great banana bread, the won't-last-til-morning, bake-for-any-and-every-occasion kind. We wanted a moist, tender loaf chock full of pure banana flavor with a gentle sweetness. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
