Dominique Ansel's Banana Bread

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350ºF (175ºC).

Step 2

Take a loaf pan (I used 10-inch) and grease the bottom and sides with butter. Dust the loaf pan with flour and shake off any execess.

Step 3

In a large bowl mash bananas, leaving some big pieces.

Step 4

Add all the dry ingredients and mix with a spatula.

Step 5

Add eggs and mix until all the ingredients are combined.

Step 6

Stir in melted butter.

Step 7

Pour the mixture into a loaf pan and place in the oven. Bake until golden brown on top and an inserted knife comes out clean (about one hour).

Step 8

Take the pan out of the oven and let it cool for 15 minutes, then take out the banana bread.
