Banana Bread

This recipe bakes 2 rectangular cake tins (~23x13cm base)

Ingredients

360g all-purpose flour
2.5 teaspoons baking soda
1.25 teaspoons salt
400g dark brown sugar
100g sour creme / mascarpone / yoghurt
110g butter (room temp)
3 eggs
4 (very ripe, black) bananas

optional:
too taste amount of chocolate chips and/or (roasted) walnuts Handfull of sugar for coating (raw, granulated, ...)

Prep

Soften the butter by leaving it out of the fridge and let it become room temperature
Grease and/or add parchment paper into the baking tins
Preheat oven to 170 C

Sugar, butter and sour creme can go into the same bowl when measuring
Flour, baking sode and salt can be added in the same bowl and whisked (no need for sifting)

Recipe

  • Mix sugar, butter and sour creme for 4 mins on medium-high speed
  • While mixing, unpeel and mash bananas
  • After 4 mins add eggs one by one
  • Reduce speed to low and add flour
  • When combined, add banana mash and chocolate/nuts and fold in by hand
  • Poor dough in baking tins
  • Sprinkle the top of dough with sugar to form hard and crispy coating
  • Bake for ~60 mins

Notes

Chocolate tends to drop to the bottom, so I pour in a small amount when folding and sprinkle them over the dough in between pours into the tin.
