Boozy banana bread is banana bread at its best. Lots of bananas and a hint of almond and almond liqueur make it delicious — I love this recipe, especially served with butter.

Ingredients

  • cooking spray

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 5 very ripe bananas, mashed

  • ¾ cup brown sugar

  • ½ cup butter, softened

  • 2 eggs

  • 3 drops almond extract

  • 3 drops amaretto (almond-flavored liqueur)

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a loaf pan with cooking spray.

  2. Whisk flour, salt, and baking soda together in a bowl.

  3. Combine bananas, brown sugar, butter, eggs, almond extract, and amaretto in a separate bowl; stir in flour mixture just until incorporated, about 1 minute. Transfer to the prepared loaf pan.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool before serving, about 30 minutes.
