This recipe uses four bananas, which is more than is typical for a single loaf. The natural sugars from the ripe, brown bananas keep the bread incredibly moist for up to one week, even sliced. The high moisture of the batter can make it tricky to determine doneness, so take care not to underbake the the loaf. It should have a dry, shiny, cracked surface, and a tester inserted into the thickest portion should come out with a few moist crumbs attached. Serve this banana bread for breakfast or brunch, or even as a simple dessert, topped with a scoop of coffee ice cream.

Chocolate-Chip Banana Bread

Nonstick spray, as needed

medium bananas, peeled

unsalted butter, melted

plain Greek yogurt

220 grams light or dark brown sugar

eggs

vanilla extract

all-purpose flour

baking soda

fine sea salt

135 grams finely chopped chocolate or mini chocolate chips (see Tip)

130 grams coarsely chopped toasted nuts,

Coarse sanding or turbinado sugar, as needed for finishing (optional)

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl, mash the bananas coarsely using a fork. They should be fully broken apart, but it’s OK if some larger lumpy pieces remain. Whisk in the melted butter, yogurt, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla until well combined.

In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda and salt to combine. Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and stir to combine using a silicone spatula or wooden spoon. Scrape the sides and base of the bowl well to make sure the mixture is uniformly combined.

Gently stir in the chocolate until combined, then pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread into an even layer. If using, sprinkle the surface generously with coarse sugar.

Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the edges of the loaf start to pull away from the edge of the pan, and a tester inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, 60 to 75 minutes. If the top of the loaf is becoming too dark before it’s baked through, loosely cover with foil.

Transfer from the oven to a cooling rack and run a thin knife around the edge of the banana bread to separate it from the pan. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before unmolding and cooling completely.

This marinade has a slightly sweet, tangy, and just a touch of spice flavor. It&#039;s extremely versatile and pairs well with chicken, pork, or beef. I used chicken breasts and cooked this on the stove. It grills beautifully too.

Huli Huli Chicken Recipe

chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)

brown sugar (light

ketchup

chicken broth

apple cider vinegar

ginger (fresh, grated)

garlic (fresh, minced)

Combine the brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, chicken broth, apple cider vinegar, ginger, and garlic in a small bowl.

Cut the chicken into 1 to 2-inch cubes. Place the chicken in a ziptop bag. Reserve 1/2 cup of the marinade and pour the remaining over the chicken. Gently toss it to cover all the chicken.

Refrigerate 6 to 24 hours. The longer you can marinate it the more flavor the chicken will have. Toss the chicken occasionally.

Allow the chicken to come to room temperature before cooking.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add part of the chicken to the hot skillet. Don&#039;t crowd the chicken in the skillet, it&#039;ll steam instead of brown is you do.

Allow the chicken to cook 4 to 5 minutes per side until it&#039;s brown and easily releases from the skillet. Turn and cook on each side. Cook remaining chicken.

Heat reserved sauce in the microwave. Serve immediately with warmed sauce.

You might think there's nothing new to learn about chocolate chip cookies, but this recipe by the baker and blogger Sarah Kieffer will prove you wonderfully wrong. The easy trick of banging the pan a few times during baking, causing the cookies to "fall," produces rippled edges that shatter in your mouth and a center that is soft and full of chocolate. Make sure to follow her instructions about freezing the dough and the size of the balls.

Giant Crinkled Chocolate Chip Cookies

salt

unsalted butter (2 sticks), room temperature

granulated sugar

55 grams packed light or dark brown sugar

chocolate

Adjust an oven rack to the middle position. Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil, parchment paper or nonstick baking mats.

In a small bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda and salt.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle, beat the butter on medium until creamy. Add the granulated and brown sugars and beat on medium until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the egg, vanilla and 2 tablespoons water, and mix on low to combine. Add the flour mixture, and mix on low until combined. Add the chocolate and mix on low into the batter. (At this point, the dough can be refrigerated for several hours or overnight.)

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Form the dough into 3 1/2-ounce (100-gram) balls (a heaping 1/3 cup each). Place 4 balls an equal distance apart on a prepared pan, and transfer to the freezer for 15 minutes before baking. After you put the first baking sheet in the oven, put the second one in the freezer.

Place the chilled baking sheet in the oven and bake 10 minutes, until the cookies are puffed slightly in the center. Lift the baking sheet and let it drop down against the oven rack, so the edges of the cookies set and the inside falls back down. (This will feel wrong, but trust me.) Bang it down, if necessary, to make the center fall.

After the cookies puff up again, 2 to 3 minutes later, repeat lifting and dropping the pan. Repeat a few more times, every 3 minutes, to create ridges around the edge of the cookie. Bake 16 to 18 minutes total, until the cookies have spread out, and the edges are golden brown, but the centers are much lighter and not fully cooked.

Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack; let cool before removing the cookies from the pan.

Repeat with remaining cookies, using the first sheet pan for the third batch of cookies.

These chocolate brownies use both Dutch cocoa powder and dark chocolate, as well as brown butter, for a rich and complex flavor.

Glossy Fudge Brownies Recipe | BraveTart

unsalted butter (about 3 sticks; 340 grams)

dark chocolate, about 72% (about 1 cup; 170 grams)

white sugar (about 2 1/4 cups; 450 grams)

light brown sugar (about 1/4 cup, packed; 55 grams)

eggs,

vanilla extract (about 1 tablespoon; 15 grams)

instant espresso powder,

all-purpose flour,

cocoa

Getting Ready: Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9- by 13- by 2-inch anodized aluminum baking pan with foil to cover the bottom and long sides of the pan. (It's all right to leave the short sides exposed.) If you like, grease lightly with pan spray.

In a 3-quart stainless steel saucier, melt butter over medium-low heat. When it has completely melted, increase heat to medium and simmer, stirring with a heat-resistant spatula while butter hisses and pops. Continue cooking and stirring, scraping up any brown bits that form inside the pan, until butter is golden yellow and perfectly silent (see note). Remove from heat and stir in dark chocolate; the mixture will seem quite thin.

Making the Batter: Combine white sugar, brown sugar, salt, eggs, vanilla, and instant espresso (if using) in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on medium-high until extremely thick and fluffy, about 8 minutes. (The whipping time can vary significantly depending on bowl size, batter temperature, and mixer wattage, so use the visual cues as your primary guide.)

Meanwhile, sift together flour and cocoa powder. When the foamed eggs are fluffy and thick, reduce speed to low and pour in the warm chocolate-butter. Once it is incorporated, add cocoa-flour all at once and continue mixing until roughly combined. Finish with a flexible spatula, scraping and folding to ensure batter is well mixed from the bottom up.

Pour into prepared pan and bake until brownies are glossy and just barely firm, about 30 minutes or to an internal temperature of 205°F (96°C). (Take care that the probe is inserted at a sharp angle to avoid touching the bottom of the pan.) The timing of this recipe is based on anodized aluminum and will vary significantly with glass, ceramic, or nonstick pans, materials that will also affect the brownies' consistency. 

Cool brownies to room temperature to allow their crumb to set before slicing. Slide a butter knife between the brownies and the short ends of the pan; gently tug on the foil, then lift to remove the brownies from the pan. Cut into 24 two-and-a-half-inch squares and store in an airtight container with a sheet of wax paper between layers, about 1 week at room temperature.

This simple cake is studded with large pieces of fruit, so that each slice has its own piece of tender baked apple. Press the apples gently into the batter and be aware that the pound cake-style batter will rise around them. The cake is sweet enough that it needs no frosting, and is finished simply with a dusting of cinnamon-scented confectioners’ sugar that dissolves onto the surface of the apples, leaving only its sweetness behind. Cut the cake into 12 large squares and serve with ice cream, or cut the squares in half for a sweet snack.

Cinnamon Apple Sheet Cake

Nonstick spray

cinnamon

baking powder

unsalted butter (2 sticks)

sour cream

apples

confectioners’ sugar

Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Lightly spray a 9-by-13-inch pan with nonstick spray, and line with parchment paper, leaving about 2 inches of excess on each side to eventually help you lift the cooked cake out of the pan.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.

In a small pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue to heat the butter, stirring occasionally, until the solids begin to brown and the butter smells nutty, 9 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and cool for 20 minutes.

Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the bowl and whisk to combine. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well to fully incorporate each before adding the next. Add the vanilla and whisk to combine.

Add about half of the flour mixture and whisk to incorporate. (If necessary, switch to a spatula or wooden spoon at this point.) Add the sour cream and mix to combine. Add the remaining flour and mix to combine.

Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Press the 12 apple segments partly into the batter, spacing them evenly throughout and keeping in mind that you want each of 12 square slices to have one apple quarter.

Transfer to the oven and bake for 60 to 70 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out clean, and you should be able to easily pierce an apple with a small knife. Let the cake cool completely in the pan.

Just before serving, use the parchment flaps to lift the cake out of the pan. Combine the confectioners’ sugar with the cinnamon and dust the surface of the cake generously with the cinnamon sugar. Cut into 12 square pieces or 24 triangles.

Our never-fail turkey produces a holiday centerpiece that is excellent in every way that other turkeys often fall short. It’s not bland, thanks to a sugar-and-salt dry rub. It’s juicy as heck, because we nailed the optimal target temperature. And cooking the turkey on a rimmed baking sheet is great for all-over browning.

Dry-Rubbed Roast Turkey

light brown sugar

12–14-lb. turkey, neck reserved

Tbsp. (1½ sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, divided

sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar

Tbsp. honey

Worcestershire sauce

rosemary

garlic cloves, crushed

orange zest

Our never-fail turkey produces a holiday centerpiece that is excellent in every way that other turkeys often fall short. It’s not bland, thanks to a sugar-and-salt dry rub. It’s juicy as heck, because we nailed the optimal target temperature (might as well write 150° on your hand now). And cooking the turkey on a rimmed baking sheet is great for all-over browning, but be extra careful as you remove it from the oven so that the drippings don’t slosh over the sides.

Place salt and brown sugar in a medium bowl and work together with your fingers until incorporated. Place turkey on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. (If you don’t have this setup, place your turkey on a V-shape rack set inside a large roasting pan.) Sprinkle dry brine all over outside and inside of turkey, patting to adhere and nudging some into crevices. You won’t need all of the dry brine, but it’s good to have extra since some of it will end up on the baking sheet as you season the turkey. Chill bird, uncovered, at least 12 hours and up to 2 days.

Remove turkey from wire rack and rinse baking sheet and rack if needed (turkey will most likely release some liquid onto pan). Line baking sheet with 3 layers of foil and set rack back inside. Place turkey, breast side up, on rack and tuck wings underneath. Let turkey sit at room temperature 2–3 hours.

Place an oven rack in middle of oven; preheat to 450°. Using your fingers, loosen skin on breast. Work 4 Tbsp. butter under skin, spreading evenly over both breasts. Smear outside of turkey with another 4 Tbsp. butter.

Tie legs together with kitchen twine and pour 1 cup water into baking sheet.

Roast turkey, rotating pan halfway through, until skin is mostly golden brown all over, about 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook vinegar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, garlic, orange zest, and remaining 4 Tbsp. butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until bubbling and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to lowest setting and keep glaze warm.

Reduce oven temperature to 300° and continue to roast turkey, brushing with glaze every 30 minutes and adding more water by ½-cupfuls as needed to maintain some liquid in baking sheet, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast near the neck registers 150° (don’t worry; the temperature will continue to climb while the bird rests), 65–85 minutes longer. Skin should be deep golden brown, shiny, and crisp. Transfer turkey to a cutting board and let rest at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour before carving.

With a jar of molasses on the shelf, you can always whip up a batch of DIY brown sugar in a pinch. It's not necessarily tastier or more convenient than the real deal, but without question, it's better than having to give up on a batch of your favorite cookies.

Homemade Brown Sugar Recipe

sugar

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine sugar and molasses. Mix on low speed until roughly incorporated, then increase to medium speed and mix until light, fluffy, and perfectly homogeneous, with an appearance just like that of real brown sugar. Use in your favorite recipes, or store in an airtight container up to 1 month at room temperature. 

We took the traditional Jamaican jerk spice and…simplified it. Before you call the authenticity police, give it a try on roast chicken legs.

Jerk Spice–Rubbed Chicken Legs

cinnamon stick

allspice berries

black peppercorns

whole cloves

thyme

cayenne pepper

chicken legs (thigh and drumstick)

Kosher salt

Preheat oven to 425°. Whack cinnamon stick with the back side of a chef’s knife to break into small pieces. Toast cinnamon, allspice, peppercorns, and cloves in a dry small skillet over medium-high, tossing, until fragrant, about 2 minutes; let cool.

Grind spices, brown sugar, thyme, and cayenne in spice mill or with mortar and pestle to a fine powder. Mix oil and 2 Tbsp. spice rub in a small bowl (save remaining rub for another use). Rub chicken legs with jerk spice mixture; season with salt. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until golden brown and cooked through, 30–35 minutes.

Do Ahead: Jerk spice can be made 3 months ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
