CINNAMON CRUNCH BANANA BREAD



Cinnamon Crunch Banana Bread image

This easy cake - no mixer required - is a popular staple at Bakesale Betty in Oakland, Calif. Pie, cake, cookies and a legendary fried chicken sandwich are the only things on the menu, but locals start lining up long before opening time. They're that good. Betty herself, the baker Alison Barkat, adds a cinnamon-sugar topping and honey to the classic banana bread formula for a deeply caramelized, moist result.

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 (9-by-5-inch) loaf

Number Of Ingredients 14

Unsalted butter, for greasing
1 1/2 cups/190 grams all-purpose flour
1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup/120 milliliters vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1/4 cup/60 milliliters honey
1 cup mashed ripe bananas (from 2 to 3 medium bananas)
1/4 cup/60 milliliters warm water
1/4 cup/55 grams brown sugar, preferably light brown or Demerara sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment or wax paper, leaving enough paper hanging over the sides to lift the cake out after baking. (This will prevent the topping from breaking when removing the bread from the pan.)
  • Prepare the batter: In a medium bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, using a sturdy whisk, beat together oil, eggs and honey until smooth. Stir in bananas and warm water. Add dry ingredients to egg-oil mixture and stir to blend. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Make the topping: In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, granulated sugar and cinnamon, using your fingers to break up any lumps. Sprinkle evenly over batter.
  • Bake until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour, checking after 50 minutes. If topping shows signs of burning, reduce heat to 325 degrees.
  • Remove to a rack and let cool in pan for 30 minutes. Use the edges of the paper to lift the cake up and out. Place on a rack (leave the paper on) and let cool before slicing and serving.

ESPRESSO-CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA BREAD WITH ESPRESSO-CINNAMON BUTTER



Espresso-Chocolate Chip Banana Bread with Espresso-Cinnamon Butter image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 1h50m

Yield One 9-inch loaf

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus extra at room temperature for greasing the pan
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 medium-ripe bananas (the peel should be pretty black), peeled and halved
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons lightly-packed light brown sugar
1 large egg, beaten
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
Pinch of ground cinnamon
Pinch of fine salt

Steps:

  • Make the banana bread: Adjust an oven rack to the lowest position and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch loaf pan with the softened butter. Place the 5 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan set over medium heat and cook until the butter turns a deep golden brown color, about 2 minutes; stir in the espresso powder. Remove and let cool slightly.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda and kosher salt together in a medium bowl.
  • Using a potato masher, mash the bananas in a medium bowl until pretty smooth. Add the sugars, cooled brown butter and egg and whisk until combined. Add the flour mixture and whisk until just combined, don't over-mix. Fold in the chopped chocolate.
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake on the lowest oven rack until a toothpick inserted into the center of the banana bread comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, 40 to 50 minutes. Let the banana bread cool on a baking rack in the pan for 15 minutes. Use a knife to separate the edges of the banana bread from the pan, then invert it and cool the loaf directly on the rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
  • Make the espresso-cinnamon butter: Stir the butter, sugar, espresso, cinnamon and salt together in a small bowl until smooth. Serve with the banana bread.

CINNAMON AND CHOCOLATE BANANA BREAD



Cinnamon and Chocolate Banana Bread image

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 very ripe bananas, peeled and mashed with a fork (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup toasted walnut pieces
1 disk Mexican chocolate, chopped into small pieces
3/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter

Steps:

  • For the banana bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-count muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  • Sift the flour, baking soda and salt into a medium bowl. Whisk the vanilla and eggs together in a liquid measuring cup with a spout. Set aside.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or with an electric hand-held mixer, cream the sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Gradually pour in the egg mixture while beating; beat until incorporated. Mix in the bananas (the batter will appear curdled, but don't worry), then remove the bowl from the mixer. With a rubber spatula, fold in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Fold in the walnuts, then the Mexican chocolate.
  • For the cinnamon crumble topping: In a small bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Cut in the butter with 2 knives until uniform.
  • Fill the cups of the muffin tin about halfway with the batter. Spoon the cinnamon crumble topping over the muffins, pressing it lightly into the batter. Bake until the topping is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool before serving. These muffins are great with a smear of butter.

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
7 very ripe bananas, mashed
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 eggs
3 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon (approximate)
3 tablespoons sugar (for sprinkling)
