Equipment

  • Saucepan
  • Loaf pan
  • Whisk
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

For the Batter

  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter browned
  • 1 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 medium ripe bananas mashed
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions
 

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt ½ cup of unsalted butter, stirring constantly until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the browned butter with 1 cup of granulated sugar, add in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, whisk until smooth. Fold in 3 mashed ripe bananas.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon of baking soda, ½ teaspoon of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined.
  • Fold in ½ cup of brown sugar until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Optionally, place dollops of sugar cookie dough on top.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas for the sweetest flavor. Avoid overmixing the batter to ensure fluffiness.
