Ingredients

Scale
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 stick unsalted butter
  • 3 large ripe bananas, mashed
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8.5-by-4.5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. In a light-colored sauté pan, melt the stick of unsalted butter over medium heat until golden brown and fragrant. Allow it to cool slightly.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix together mashed bananas and eggs until well combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, dark brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Break up any clumps of brown sugar.
  5. Gently fold the banana mixture into the dry ingredients before adding the browned butter and stirring until fully combined.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and place a halved banana on top for decoration; sprinkle with additional dark brown sugar.
  7. Bake for about 70 to 80 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
