Ingredients
3 ripe bananas
-
150 g wheat flour
100 g almond powder
80 g melted semi-salted butter (or 80 ml coconut oil)
-
80 g sugar
40 g blossom honey
- 2 eggs
-
1 tablespoon roasted Hojicha green tea powder
- 1 sachet baking powder (11 g)
-
1 pinch salt
-
Sesame seeds
Instructions
Preheat oven to 175°C. Generously butter a cake tin
Mash the bananas in a bowl, deliberately leaving a few pieces.
Beat the eggs with the sugar and honey. Add them to the mixture little by little. The texture will become creamier.
Melt the butter and then gradually add it to the mixture.
In another bowl, gently mix together the flour, almond powder, Hojicha powder, and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just enough to combine the ingredients.
Pour into the mold and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, depending on your oven.
Leave to cool before unmolding.
Recipe notes
For an even more gourmet version, add a layer of caramelized pecans.
Melt 2 tablespoons of sugar with a knob of butter in a frying pan until golden-brown, then add ½ cup of pecans.
Leave to cool and crush them lightly before gently mixing them into the batter.
When baked, they add a subtle crunch and buttery flavor that marries perfectly with the toasted flavors of the hojicha and the sweetness of the banana.
The result is a rich, fragrant and irresistibly textured banana bread, perfect for making an effortless impression.
