Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a small sauce pan, melt butter. Once melted, continue to cook at a gentle boil, stirring occasionally, until butter is no longer yellow and reaches a golden amber color. Remove from heat and transfer to a large mixing bowl along with mashed banana, Greek yogurt (or sour cream), sugar, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla. Mix well.
  3. Add flour, baking soda, and salt and stir (don't use an electric mixer for this part!) just until dry ingredients are incorporated and there are no more streaks of flour in the batter. Don't over mix. (If adding chocolate chips, stir them in now)
  4. Pour batter into your prepared baking pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes until an inserted toothpick in the middle comes out clean (a few loose crumbs are okay but no wet batter).
  5. Allow to cool at least 10-15 minutes. Slice and serve immediately or store in airtight container at room temperature up to 5 days.

Notes

  • For most flavorful banana bread, use very ripe bananas (that have begun to brown)
