Number Of Ingredients 17

Banana Bread
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
3 very ripe bananas (1 cup)
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract (can substitute rum extract)
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup sugar
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
Brown Butter Icing:
1/2 cup butter
3 cups sifted powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
tablespoons 3 to 4 water

Steps:

  • Banana Bread:
  • Sift the flour, baking soda and salt into a medium bowl and set aside. In a separate bowl mash the peeled bananas with a fork. Combine the eggs, vanilla, buttermilk, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and mashed bananas with a whisk or electric mixer at medium speed. Do not over-mix. The mixture should be lumpy.
  • With a rubber spatula, mix in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Fold in the nuts and transfer the batter in to a buttered loaf pan.
  • Bake 45 minutes at 400 degrees F or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Brown Butter Icing:
  • In a small saucepan heat the butter over medium heat until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Remove saucepan from heat; stir in 3 cups sifted powdered and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Stir in enough water to make the icing the right consistency to drizzle. Drizzle on banana nut bread.
