Description
Rich, moist, and spiced with cookie butter, this Biscoff Banana Bread is the ultimate comfort bake for any time of day.
Ingredients
- All-Purpose Flour: 1¾ cups – Gives the bread its structure.
- Baking Soda: 1 teaspoon – Helps the loaf rise beautifully.
- Salt: ½ teaspoon – Enhances overall flavor balance.
- Ground Cinnamon: 1 teaspoon – Complements the Biscoff’s warm spice.
- Overripe Bananas: 3 large, mashed – Bring moisture and natural sweetness.
- Brown Sugar: ½ cup – Adds caramel undertones and depth.
- Granulated Sugar: ¼ cup – Lightens the sweetness slightly.
- Eggs: 2 large – Bind everything together.
- Greek Yogurt or Sour Cream: ¼ cup – Ensures a tender, moist crumb.
- Vanilla Extract: 1 teaspoon – Adds aromatic richness.
- Vegetable Oil: ⅓ cup – Keeps the bread soft and moist.
- Biscoff Spread: ½ cup, plus 2 tablespoons for swirling – Brings that luscious, cookie-butter magic.
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan. Line it with parchment for easy release.
- Combine Ingredients: In one bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. In another, mix mashed bananas, sugars, eggs, yogurt, vanilla, and oil until smooth.
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Pour half the batter into the loaf pan, then dollop in a tablespoon of Biscoff. Swirl with a knife. Repeat with remaining batter and another swirl of Biscoff on top.
- Assemble the Dish: Ensure your swirls are evenly distributed for a marbled effect. Tap the pan gently to remove air bubbles.
- Cook to Perfection: Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean (a few moist crumbs are fine).
- Finishing Touches: Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice and serve warm, toasted, or straight from the loaf.
Notes
- Use fully ripe bananas for best sweetness and texture.
- Let the loaf cool completely before slicing for clean cuts.
- Sprinkle brown sugar on top before baking for a caramelized crust.
