Time 1h40m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 13

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
1 stick unsalted butter
1 cup light brown sugar, plus more as needed
1 large egg
2 cups ripe banana, (about 4 large bananas)
½ cup full fat sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup dark chocolate chunk
1 tablespoon turbinado sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line the pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the long sides so it will be easy to lift out the bread, and spray again.
  • Add the butter to a medium nonstick pan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter turns amber brown and smells nutty, about 3-4 minutes. Watch carefully so the butter does not burn. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside to cool for 10-15 minutes.
  • Add cooled brown butter and brown sugar to a large bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until evenly combined, about 1 minute. Add the egg and beat until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the mashed bananas, sour cream, and vanilla and mix with a rubber spatula until well combined.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon.
  • Alternate adding the flour mixture and banana mixture to the butter mixture, starting and ending with flour and folding with a rubber spatula between each addition until just incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chunks.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth with an offset spatula, then sprinkle the turbinado sugar on top.
  • Bake the banana bread until golden brown and a toothpick or cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 60-70 minutes. Set the loaf pan on a wire rack to cool for at least 1 hour, then lift out the banana bread and slice.
  • Enjoy!

RIDICULOUSLY EASY BANANA BREAD



Ridiculously Easy Banana Bread image

Your bananas need to be ripe for the best, most flavorful homemade banana bread. It is even better if they are overripe, brown, and speckled. A note on pan size: We use an 8 ½-inch by 4 ½-inch loaf pan; if you only have a 9-inch by 5-inch pan, check for doneness 5 to 10 minutes earlier.

Time 1h15m

Yield Makes 1 loaf, approximately 10 slices

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ cups (195 grams) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 medium bananas, heavily speckled and brown bananas are best, about 1 ½ cups mashed
8 tablespoons (115 grams or 1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3/4 cup (150 grams) packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup (50 grams) walnuts, toasted and chopped, optional
1/2 cup chocolate chips, optional

Steps:

  • Center a rack in the oven and heat to 350° Fahrenheit. Butter and flour an 8 ½-inch by 4 ½-inch loaf pan. Alternatively, grease the pan, and then line with a sheet of parchment paper (as shown in the video).
  • Place the pan on an insulated baking sheet or two regular baking sheets stacked on the other. This is optional but helps with even baking.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together, and set aside.
  • In the bottom of a medium bowl, mash bananas into a chunky paste.
  • Whisk the melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla into the bananas until well blended.
  • Switch to a large rubber spatula, scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl, and then add the dry ingredients in three parts, stirring until the flour disappears and the batter is smooth. Fold in the nuts and chocolate chips.
  • Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake 55 to 75 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
  • After 30 minutes in the oven, check the bread for color. If it looks like it is browning too quickly, loosely cover with aluminum foil.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes. Unmold the bread cool completely.

Provided by Kardea Brown

Categories     dessert

Time 3h25m

Yield 8 frozen bananas

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large ripe, but firm bananas
1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
1/2 cup finely chopped peanuts
1/2 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies
8 ounces dark chocolate chips (1 1/3 cups)
6 tablespoons coconut oil
8 ounces milk chocolate chips (1 1/3 cups)
8 ounces white chocolate chips (1 1/3 cups)

Steps:

  • Peel the bananas and cut each in half crosswise. Insert a popsicle stick into the cut end of each and place the bananas on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Freeze until very firm, about 3 hours.
  • Meanwhile, place the sprinkles, peanuts and crushed cookies onto three small plates, then set the toppings aside.
  • When bananas are ready, place the dark chocolate and 2 tablespoons of the coconut oil in a medium bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Stir, then microwave 30 seconds more. Stir and microwave again until the chocolate is smooth and melted, then set aside. Repeat with the milk chocolate.
  • Place the white chocolate in a heatproof glass or metal bowl that will fit over a small pot. Fill the pot with a few inches of water, making sure the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl. Heat over medium-low heat, gently stirring the chocolate as it melts. Once it's melted, use a kitchen towel to carefully remove the bowl from the pot and set aside.
  • Dip the bananas into the melted dark chocolate and use a spatula to remove any excess. Immediately dip the banana into the topping of your choice, then place it back on the parchment-lined sheet tray. Repeat with the remaining bananas.
  • Drizzle the bananas with milk and white chocolate. Alternately, you can dip the bananas into the milk or white chocolate. Store the bananas in the freezer until you're ready to serve them.

BANANA BREAD STICKS



Banana Bread Sticks image

This recipe originated from someone at CD Kitchens, but as usual I changed it to suit my tastes. I doubled the recipe. Basically what you're doing here is making Banana Bread, cutting it in pieces and baking it again, much like you would biscotti. It took longer then I anticipated to bake these the second time. I ended up leaving them in the oven for 3 hours, then I turned the oven off and left them in there over night. They were very crispy by the next morning. I coated them with a chocolate glaze. These are different from biscotti in that they are not as dense.

Time 2h30m

Yield 2 loaves, 24-29 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup light oil
2 eggs (I used EnerG egg replacer)
2 cups mashed bananas
1/2 cup nuts (roasted, chopped and optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or other flavor optional)
3 1/4 cups spelt flour (or unbleached)
3 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F If you've decided to use them, roast your nuts for 7-10 minutes. Remove and cool.
  • Grease two medium loaf pans.
  • Mash the bananas and set aside.
  • Chop the nuts (I used macadamia nuts), set aside.
  • Put the flour, baking powder and baking soda in your food processor and mix to incorporate. Put in a large bowl.
  • Put the brown sugar and oil in the bowl of the food processor and combine. Add the eggs or egg replacer. Process until combined. Add the vanilla and give it a couple more pulses. Add the mashed banana.
  • Pulse once to combine.
  • Add the chopped nuts to the flour mixture and mix them to coat.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry until just combined. Don't over mix.
  • Divide between the two loaf pans.
  • Bake for 1 hour or until the loaves are done.
  • I found 40 minutes was sufficient, but it may vary for different ovens. I used a wooden kabob stick to test my loaves. Once the stick came out clean I removed the loaves from the oven.
  • Turn the stove temperature down to 200°F.
  • Cool the banana bread in the loaf pans for about 15 minutes then turn them out onto metal racks and cool.
  • Make sure they are cold before you cut them as they will fall apart.
  • Using a serrated knife, cut each loaf in about 1 inch slices, then cut the slices in half so they resemble a biscotti cookie.
  • I placed them cut side down on a metal cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. Bake for at least another hour. I found that more time is needed. Be patient it might take a while.
  • The slices should be hard and crunchy when finished. Store in a tightly covered container. I'm going to glaze these with chocolate. :0).
