butter-flavored cooking spray (such as Pam(R))
3 very ripe bananas
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 fluid ounces whiskey and honey liqueur (such as Jack Daniel's Tennessee Honey(R))
1 cup butter

1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Spray 5 mini loaf pans with cooking spray.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
