I made all of my little one's baby food (I know, weird that I did it for the second but not the first) and roasted all of his fruits and vegetables. I love the flavor roasting fruits and vegetables brings.
Below the photos, I included the recipe - but you can also get to the recipe on The Hungry Housewife's site by clicking the link above. I did not make mine with the walnuts or the blueberries - only because I didn't have any in the house! But I had three bananas ready to be roasted!
I hope you give this recipe a try and check out The Hungry Housewife's site!
Brown Butter Roasted Banana Bread
Makes 1 large or 2 small loaves
Recipe courtesy of The Hungry Housewife
1 stick salted butter, browned
1 cup white sugar
3 large very ripe bananas, roasted
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
2 1/4 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/3 cup buttermilk
1 cup chopped walnuts, toasted (optional)
1 cup frozen blueberries (optional - if I used these, I would roast these too!)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray TWO 8" x 3 3/4" x 2 1/2" pans with non-stick spray (I used one big loaf pan).
In a mixing bowl, combine browned butter, sugar, vanilla, and roasted bananas until mixed thoroughly. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well between each one. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour,baking powder,baking soda and salt. Incorporate the flour and buttermilk into the banana mixture. Start by adding a little buttermilk, mix, then add some flour, then mix. Do this until all of it is gone - always start and end with the flour.
Fold in the walnuts and blueberries.
Divide evenly into the pans and bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. You'll need to bake longer if you make one big loaf.
Remove from pans and allow to cool on a wire rack. Cut with a serrated bread knife.
Notes:
To roast bananas: Place bananas(with peel on) on foil and roast in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
To brown butter: Place butter in a pan and cook over medium heat until it starts to brown and become fragrant.
To toast walnuts:Preheat oven to 350, arrange walnuts on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 8-10 minutes.
