"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
8 tbsp. unsalted butter, browned
⅔ cup brown sugar
⅓ cup sour cream
4 large overly ripe bananas, mashed
2 eggs
1½ tsp. vanilla extract (or vanilla bean paste)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt
1¼ tsp. ground cinnamon
pinch ground nutmeg

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray or lightly butter and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan; set aside. In a small saucepan set over medium heat, melt the butter. Once butter begins to bubble and crackle, the butter will begin to brown. As the butter cooks, swirl to move butter around. When the butter smells nutty, remove pan from heat and transfer to a medium mixing bowl. Whisk in the brown sugar, sour cream, mashed bananas, eggs and vanilla extract. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Slowly fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, using a spatula to scrape up any dry spots from the bottom of the bowl. Do not over-mix.
Pour batter into prepared pan. Place in oven and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour. The loaf will get nice and brown on top and the crack should still be slightly moist. I usually bake mine for about 48-50 minutes. Remove from oven and allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 20 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
