Time 1h50m

Yield Makes one 9-by-5-inch loaf

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
3/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/3 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup buttermilk
3 very ripe bananas, mashed until smooth (1 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees with a rack in lower third. Butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan; line with parchment, leaving a 1-inch overhang on long sides. In a bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in butter and pecans until small clumps form and mixture is evenly moistened. (Streusel can be made ahead and refrigerated, covered, up to 3 days.)
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together butter, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla, and buttermilk; stir in bananas. Make a well in flour mixture and pour banana mixture in. Stir together until just combined (do not overmix). Spoon half of batter into prepared pan. Sprinkle half of streusel evenly over batter. Add remaining batter, then sprinkle remaining streusel evenly over top.
  • Bake until golden brown and a tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour, 20 minutes. (If top is browning too quickly, tent with foil.) Let cool in pan 20 minutes, then transfer using parchment to a wire rack. Let cool completely before serving.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Bananas: For the best banana bread, use very ripe bananas. Look for bananas with brown or black spots on the skin. These bananas will be sweeter and have a more intense banana flavor.
  • Mashing the Bananas: Use a fork or a potato masher to mash the bananas until they are smooth and creamy. This will help to incorporate the bananas into the batter and create a moist and flavorful loaf.
  • Measuring the Flour: To ensure that you have the correct amount of flour, use a kitchen scale to measure it. This is more accurate than using a measuring cup, which can be packed too tightly or too loosely.
  • Mixing the Batter: Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, which can make the bread tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Baking the Bread: Bake the banana bread in a preheated oven. This will help to prevent the bread from sinking in the middle. Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Conclusion:

    Banana bread is a classic and versatile recipe that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With its moist and flavorful texture and sweet banana flavor, banana bread is a favorite of people of all ages. The streusel topping adds a delicious crunch and sweetness to the bread. This recipe is easy to follow and can be made with ingredients that you probably already have on hand. So next time you have some ripe bananas, give this banana bread with streusel topping a try. You won't be disappointed!
