Method
 

How to Make Brown Butter Sugar Cookie Banana Bread
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan to prevent sticking.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until golden and fragrant (about 5-7 minutes). Let it cool slightly.
  3. Mash the ripe bananas in a separate bowl until smooth but slightly chunky.
  4. Combine the mashed bananas with the browned butter, dark brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract and whisk well.
  5. Sift the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and optional ground cinnamon in another bowl.
  6. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool before slicing.
