Ingredients for Banana Casserole

  • Unsalted Butter
  • Raisins
  • Brandy
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • Brown Sugar
  • Pecans

How to Make Banana Casserole

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas until mostly smooth.
  3. Add the sugar, eggs, butter, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Mix well to combine.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish (or individual ramekins).
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Drizzle generously with caramel sauce and top with whipped cream.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
