Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 200 grams Granulated Sugar
  • 4 oz Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 2 Large Eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 6 oz Cookie Butter, divided (the star of the show!)
  • 250 grams All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 3 Large Ripe Bananas (the spottier, the better)
  • 4 oz Sour Cream or Full-Fat Greek Yogurt (for that creamy twist)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9x5 loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup (2oz) of the cookie butter. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Add the ripe bananas and mash them with a potato masher or fork. Stir in the sour cream.
Mixing Ingredients
  1. Sprinkle in the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix until just combined—avoid overmixing.
Layering and Baking
  1. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Spoon half of the remaining cookie butter on top and swirl with a knife.
  2. Layer the remaining batter and repeat the swirling with the last bit of cookie butter.
  3. Bake for 55-65 minutes until golden and a knife comes out clean.
  4. Let cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days. For extra decadence, fold in chocolate chips or walnuts. For variations, consider spices like cinnamon or nutmeg.
