Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground clove
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups mashed banana, about 5 medium
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, browned
- 3 oz dark, spiced rum
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 X 5-inch bread pan with butter or cooking spray.
Prepare the browned butter. In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and maintain heat until amber in color, swirling frequently, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and add the rum to the pan to halt the cooking. Allow to cool.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg.
In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Mix in the banana and sugar. Add butter / rum mixture to banana mixture and thoroughly incorporate.
Add banana mixture all at once to dry ingredients and stir until just mixed. Do not over mix.
Transfer batter to greased loaf pan. Bake for 55 – 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Note: Cover loaf with some tin foil in the last 15 minutes of baking should it begin to darken too much.
Remove from oven and place pan on wire rack to cool for 15 minutes.
The bread slices best after being left in plastic wrap overnight
