DOMINIQUE ANSEL'S BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Grease a 10" x 5" x 3 ½" loaf pan and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, baking soda, nutmeg, salt and baking powder.
• In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs and combine with the mashed bananas. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and mix together until just combined. Stir in the melted butter until fully incorporated.
• Pour the batter into prepared pan and bake until golden brown and a cake tester inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Allow to cool for 20 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F, grease a 10 x 5-inch loaf pan, and line it with a parchment paper sling (optional).
• In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt.
• In a medium bowl, mash bananas and whisk in eggs until well-mixed. Pour banana mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
• Add melted butter, and mix until butter is incorporated into the batter. Don't over mix, but batter should be mostly uniform, and there should not be pools of butter remaining around the edges of the batter.
• Transfer the batter to your prepared loaf pan, leaving 3/4 inch of space from the top of the pan (discard extra batter if there is too much).
• In a small bowl, stir together sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over the top of the batter.
• Bake bread in preheated oven for 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, until a toothpick or knife inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
• Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 15 to 20 minutes before removing and slicing.
• Serve and enjoy!
