Our Favorite Banana Bread

Our Favorite Banana Bread

The Epicurious test kitchen baked up the most popular versions of banana bread on our site to discover what we like (or didn’t like) about each one. Then we made our ultimate version: a sweet, nutty, and supremely moist loaf that is everything we could ever want in this classic quick bread.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for pan
  • 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for pan
  • 4 medium very ripe bananas (about 13 ounces), peeled and mashed
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup (packed) dark brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup chopped toasted walnuts

PREPARATION:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×5″ loaf pan with butter and dust with flour, tapping out any excess.
  2. Combine banana, sour cream, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar on medium speed in another large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 1/2 minutes. Add eggs one at a time and beat on medium speed until fully combined, about 1 minute each. Add banana mixture and beat until just combined, about 30 seconds. Add dry ingredients in 2 batches, beating on low after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl if necessary, until fully incorporated, about 20 seconds per batch. Fold in walnuts. Transfer batter to prepared pan and smooth top with a spatula.
  4. Bake, rotating halfway through, until batter is set, top is dark golden brown and starting to crack, sides are starting to pull away from pan, and a tester inserted into center of bread comes out clean, 60–65 minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack at least 15 minutes. Run a butter knife around perimeter of pan to loosen loaf, then tap pan gently on its side until loaf releases. Transfer to a cutting board or plate and let cool completely before slicing.

Monkey-Bread Danish

Monkey-Bread Danish

You’re probably familiar with monkey bread–that sticky-sweet pastry you pull apart to eat (preferably for breakfast). Well, in this recipe, we take that idea and make individual monkey-bread Danish. Each pastry is pieced together so you can pull it apart, but for a twist, we add a rich cream-cheese filling and a coating of cinnamon streusel. Move over, “egg-in-a-hole,” monkey-bread Danish is the new head of the brunch table.

INGREDIENTS:

12 servings

STREUSEL TOPPING:

⅓ cup sugar

⅓ cup brown sugar

⅓ cup all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

¼ cup (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature

CREAM-CHEESE FILLING:

One 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature

½ cup confectioners’ sugar

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 egg

DANISH:

One 16-ounce package puff pastry, thawed and diced

¼ cup (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted

¾ cup sugar

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

DIRECTIONS :

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. MAKE THE STREUSEL TOPPING: In a medium bowl, stir the sugar with the brown sugar, flour and cinnamon to combine. Add the butter and mix until the sugar mixture is moist and crumbly.

3. MAKE THE FILLING: In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese with the confectioners’ sugar, flour and egg to combine.

4. MAKE THE DANISH: In a large bowl, toss the diced puff pastry in the melted butter to moisten and coat. In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon to combine. Add the cinnamon sugar to the buttered puff pastry and toss gently to coat.

5. ASSEMBLE THE DANISH: Mound heaping ¼ cups of puff pastry onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 1½ inches between each mound. Flatten slightly, but make sure the pieces are all touching. Using your fingers or the back of a spoon, press a slight indentation into the center of each mound to make a little room for the filling.

6. Spoon 2 tablespoons cream-cheese filling into the center of each mound. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons streusel topping.

7. Bake the Danish until the puff pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool before serving.
