Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place butter into a light colored saucepan (stainless steel would work) over medium heat. Stir until melted and then frequently with a rubber spatula for several minutes (keep a close eye on it because it will burn quickly!) Butter will start to foam up–keep stirring, continuing to scrape the bottom. As soon as the butter turns golden brown, you start to smell a nutty aroma and see brown specs, remove from heat and transfer to another dish to cool.
- Mash the bananas in a large bowl. Whisk in the brown sugar, pumpkin, egg and vanilla. And then once combined, mix in the brown butter.
- Add the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice and salt. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until no dry streaks remain. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Grease a small loaf pan with butter (I used a l lb./8.5x4.5” loaf pan). Pour batter into the pan. Sprinkle more chocolate chips on top if desired.
- Bake for about 45-55 minutes, until no longer jiggly or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean with no batter, just a few wet crumbs.
- Remove from the oven and place the loaf pan on a wire rack. Let bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then move bread out of the pan, onto the wire rack to finish cooling completely before slicing.
