Instructions
Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter, stirring constantly. Cook until it transforms into a deep golden brown and develops a nutty aroma, about 4–5 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the browned butter and granulated sugar, then add the egg and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth. Fold in the mashed bananas.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
- Carefully fold in the brown sugar until evenly distributed.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Optionally, add dollops of sugar cookie dough on top of the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50–60 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For best results, use overripe bananas and avoid overmixing the batter.
