Equipment

  • saucepan
  • mixing bowl
  • Fork
  • Baking dish

Ingredients
  

Butter and Sugars

  • 120 g butter for browned butter
  • 60 g sugar
  • 90 g vergeoise or brown sugar

Fruits and Eggs

  • 3 medium ripe bananas
  • 2 eggs

Dry Ingredients

  • 180 g flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla powder

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Start by preparing the browned butter by gently heating the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Stir regularly until it takes on a brown color and develops a nutty aroma. Be careful, as this can happen quickly, and remove it from heat as soon as it begins to brown. Set aside to cool.
  • Mash the bananas with a fork in a mixing bowl.
  • Add the eggs, both sugars, baking soda, and salt and mix thoroughly again.
  • Add the cooled browned butter, mix again, and finally add the flour.
  • After adding the flour, do not overmix to keep the cake moist: mix gently and briefly until just homogeneous.

Notes

Ensure not to overmix the batter to maintain the texture.
