CINNAMON-COCONUT-CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA BREAD



Cinnamon-Coconut-Chocolate Chip Banana Bread image

This is a riff on a super popular and delicious recipe from the site: Cathy's Banana Bread. This version incorporates other reviewers' suggestions to use a mix of white and brown sugar and to use butter instead of margarine. It also includes a little coconut and cinnamon. The coconut toasts nicely on top, adds great texture, and smells and tastes amazing with the banana and the chocolate.

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 1h50m

Yield One 9-inch loaf

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus extra at room temperature for greasing the pan
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 medium-ripe bananas (the peel should be pretty black), peeled and halved
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons lightly-packed light brown sugar
1 large egg, beaten
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
Pinch of ground cinnamon
Pinch of fine salt

Steps:

  • Make the banana bread: Adjust an oven rack to the lowest position and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch loaf pan with the softened butter. Place the 5 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan set over medium heat and cook until the butter turns a deep golden brown color, about 2 minutes; stir in the espresso powder. Remove and let cool slightly.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda and kosher salt together in a medium bowl.
  • Using a potato masher, mash the bananas in a medium bowl until pretty smooth. Add the sugars, cooled brown butter and egg and whisk until combined. Add the flour mixture and whisk until just combined, don't over-mix. Fold in the chopped chocolate.
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake on the lowest oven rack until a toothpick inserted into the center of the banana bread comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, 40 to 50 minutes. Let the banana bread cool on a baking rack in the pan for 15 minutes. Use a knife to separate the edges of the banana bread from the pan, then invert it and cool the loaf directly on the rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
  • Make the espresso-cinnamon butter: Stir the butter, sugar, espresso, cinnamon and salt together in a small bowl until smooth. Serve with the banana bread.

CINNAMON CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA BREAD

A delicious adaption of traditional banana bread, decided to make it for my mom for mother's day, first time ever making it, and everyone loved it. Best bananas to use to this recipe is right before you would normally throw them away, when the skins are turning black.

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 loaf, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 bananas (over ripe)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup cinnamon applesauce
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Peel the bananas, cutting out any of the bruised or brown spots on the banana themselves. Place them in a large bowl. Take a potato masher and mash the bananas until very well mushed. Take both sugars and add to the bowl. Stir the mixture to coat the mushed bananas really well with the sugar. Place in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F Add the applesauce and eggs to the banana sugar mixture and beat well. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. I use an 8x8 glass dish for this recipe your welcome to use the traditional 9x5 loaf pan. Grease the pan or dish you decide to use with Olive Oil spray.
  • Pour in the mixture and bake for about 35-40 mins and check with a toothpick to see if it is ready. If it is not due to different ovens, place back in the oven for 5 minute increments until done. Cool it for about 15 minutes and its ready to enjoy!
