Description

How about a banana bread with the nutty flavor of browned butter plus the surprise of hidden chocolate chips?

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Very Overripe Bananas
  • 1 stick Unsalted Butter
  • 2 ounces, weight Brown Sugar
  • 2 ounces, weight Granulated Sugar
  • 6 ounces, fluid Buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 2 whole Large Eggs
  • 8 ounces, weight (around 1 1/2 Cups) All-purpose Flour, Plus 2 Tablespoons, Divided
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1-¼ teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1-½ cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9 x 5 loaf pan with baking spray.
2. Melt the butter on the stove in a pan. Keep cooking over medium heat until butter turns a light golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. The milk solids will float to the top, and you want to pay attention to the color of the liquid butter underneath. Turn off the heat and let cool slightly.
3. In a large bowl, mash your very ripe bananas. I like to use my potato masher.
4. To your bananas, add the cooled butter, sugars, buttermilk, vanilla and eggs.
5. In a separate bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk to combine.
6. Add your dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and combine gently just until the flour disappears.
7. Toss your chocolate chips with the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour and fold into your batter.
8. Pour into the pan and bake until the top turns golden brown and a skewer inserted into the bread comes out without any wet batter clinging to it, about 40-50 minutes.
