Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2.5 cups Whole wheat flour; 2 teaspoons Baking soda; 1 teaspoon Kosher salt; 1/2 pounds Unsalted butter; 1.5 cups White sugar; 1/3 cup Brown sugar; 4-5 Yellow bananas (not overly ripe); 4 Eggs; 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter; 1 teaspoon Baking powder; 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Servings: persons

2.5 cups Whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons Baking soda
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 pounds Unsalted butter
1.5 cups White sugar
1/3 cup Brown sugar
4-5 Yellow bananas (not overly ripe)
4 Eggs
1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
1 teaspoon Baking powder
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

1
Set oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Butter and flour two loaf pans.
2
Incorporate flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
3
Using the tines of a fork, mash bananas while maintaining some sizable pieces. Not looking for baby food here! If your bananas are more ripe, consider a small dice instead. Heat a medium saute pan over medium-low heat and add 1 tbs butter, bananas, and brown sugar. Stir with a wooden spoon until bananas are caramelized and fragrant, about 4-5 minutes. Let cool.
4
While bananas are cooling, cream the butter with white sugar. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Add the cooled bananas and chopped pecans and stir with a spoon. Slowly incorporate dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
5
Divide batter into loaf pans and tap on the counter to release any air bubbles. Bake for 55-60 minutes. Let cool on a rack and serve with butter and a flake of Maldon salt.
