How to Make Kona Banana Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan (or double the recipe and grease a bundt pan).
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar, and 2 large eggs until light and fluffy.
- Mash 3 ripe bananas and add them to the creamed mixture. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour 1/3 of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with your desired filling (e.g., ½ cup chopped macadamia nuts, ½ cup chocolate chips). Repeat with another 1/3 of the batter, followed by more filling. Top with remaining batter.
- Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
