For the Caramelized Bananas:
For the bread:
- 3/4 cup 150g brown sugar
- ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 7 tablespoons (103ml) milk (any kind)
- 1 teaspoon vinegar or lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups (248g) all-purpose flour
- Butter and granulated sugar for the pan
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5x3” loaf pan with butter and coat it with sugar. (You do this like you would grease and flour a pan. Grease it first, then add about 2 tablespoons sugar to the pan and move the pan side to side until the bottom and sides are coated with sugar.
Slice bananas. Melt spread in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add bananas, cooking until all the bananas are coated and the mixture is bubbly, just a few minutes. Remove bananas to a bowl to cool at least 5 minutes; mash with a fork.
Cream butter and sugar with a hand mixer.
Add bananas, eggs, milk, vinegar, and baking soda. Mix until combined.
Mix in flour until just incorporated. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake for 50-60 minutes until a toothpick comes out with just a few crumbs. The edges will be a dark brown and there will be a nice crack down the center.
Cool completely before removing loaf from pan, but you can cut slices from the pan after it’s cooled for about 15-20 minutes.
Store covered at room temperature. Freeze bread whole (wrapped well) or slices in sandwich bags for up to 3 months.
- If you happen to have buttermilk, you can use that (just omit vinegar).
- Milk: You can use any kind of milk (any fat content or nondairy)
