Amazing Browned Butter Banana Bread
We love banana bread in our house and lately I have been wanting to to out some new variations of our favorite banana bread recipe. I decided to try out a browned butter version and boy oh boy is it a must have.
There is something about browned butter in recipes that adds a wonderful caramel depth to it. The browned butter is the perfect addition to banana bread.
Browned butter is really quite simple. You can make browned butter in no time.
How to make Browned Butter
First, place your butter in a saucepan and turn on the heat on medium heat and let the butter melt. It will start to boil and you want to let it boil until it starts to turn color. It will foam up a bit so make sure that your pan is bigger than you need. Stir throughout occasionally. The color will change quickly once it hits that smoke point. Once it browns immediately turn off the heat. let is cool and then use it in your recipes. You can also put it in the fridge for a few minutes to speed up the process.
