Brown-Butter Chocolate Chip-Banana Bread
- 10 tablespoons brown butter, divided
- 4 ripe bananas
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup + 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease a 9-by5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
Brown butter in a small saucepan. Remove 2 tablespoons and set aside to use once the banana bread has been baked.
Combine 3 bananas and eggs until well mixed and mushy. Add vanilla and give it a stir.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add 1 cup brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add the banana-egg mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until combined.
