SERVINGS: 12
INGREDIENTS
* 1 cup unsalted butter
* 1 cup dark brown sugar
* 6 eggs
* 2 cups all-purpose flour
* 2 teaspoons baking powder
* 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
* 1 pinch ground allspice
* 1 pinch salt
* 3 ripe bananas, mashed
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, nutmeg, allspice and salt. Blend the flour mixture into the butter and egg mixture a bit at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the banana and vanilla; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour batter into prepared pan.
3. Bake in preheated oven for 90 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes and then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
