BANANA BREAD BARS WITH BROWN BUTTER FROSTING
. Well, that weekend FLEW by! I can't believe it's Monday already, I feel like
I just left the office on Friday. What the heck...
But I guess that would indicate a good weekend, huh? Robbie and I had another
lovely couple of days, very laid back and relaxed. Just our style. Let's have
a little recap.
Saturday morning Robbie had to go into work for a few hours [it's busy season,
remember?], so I hopped off [not literally] to the gym to meet Hollyann for a
little workout. That afternoon, I met up with Robbie at Starbucks to work for a
few more hours, and then we were off to the Creighton Men's Basketball game vs.
Bradley. All in all, the game wasn't too crazy, there didn't seem to be much
energy from the players or fans. It was one of those games where you knew the
'good' team would pull it out, so regardless of a close score no one got overly
excited. But Creighton did 'pull it out', marking their 20th win of the season.
On Sunday, Robbie and I got our hair[s] cut together and then hung out with the
pups at home for the rest of the day. And don't worry, I definitely got some
baking in on Sunday with our free time, but I'm saving that kitchen adventure
for later this week. So stay tuned.
Anywho, what do these Banana Bread Bars have to do with anything? Well,
nothing. I'm having a hard time correlating anything significant from our
weekend to these bars. Dang it. But one thing is for sure, they are
outrageously addicting and will become one of my go-to banana recipes from here
on out. They are that scrumptious.
You may recall the Banana Cake I made just a bit ago and say to yourself "what's
the diff?". And you'll say 'diff', too. Now don't get me wrong, the Banana
Cake was fantastic, as every recipe has been from Bake or Break, and much more
of a classic rendition. But what we have here is anything but classic.
However, I still can't seem to fathom why I haven't seen more recipes with
bananas and brown butter, because this, ladies and gents, should be illegal. In
all 50 states.
These bars? OooOOo, these bars. So stinkin' good! The banana bars themselves
are, yes, reminiscent of banana bread, yet a touch more dense. They actually
kind of remind me of the texture of my favorite Pumpkin Bars, ridiculously moist
and full. And the banana flavor is extrememly prominent but absolutely
wonderful. But what takes these bars to the next level and beyond is the brown
butter frosting. I can't really explain it, but this combination just works.
More than works, actually. It's like peanut butter and jelly, simply made for
each other. Got me?
Please note, my description did, in no way, do these bars justice. You'll just
have to make them to see for yourself. Waistline, be warned .
My Notes:
* When browning the butter, make sure to pay close attention. The 'turn'
happens quickly and before you know it, you'll have extra burnt butter, which
is not good...
From The Girl Who Ate Everything
Ingredients:
Banana Bread Bars:
1-1/2 c. sugar
1 c. sour cream
1/2 c. butter, softened
2 eggs
1-3/4 c. (3 or 4) ripe bananas, mashed
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 c. all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. chopped walnuts (optional)
Brown Butter Frosting:
1/2 c. butter
4 c. powdered sugar
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
3 tbsp. milk
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375F. Grease and flour 15x10-inch jelly roll pan. For the
bars, in a large bowl, beat together sugar, sour cream, butter, and eggs until
creamy. Blend in bananas and vanilla extract. Add flour, baking soda,
salt, and blend for 1 minute. Stir in walnuts.
2. Spread batter evenly into pan. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
3. Meanwhile, for frosting, heat butter in a large saucepan over medium heat
until boiling. Let the butter turn a delicate brown and remove from heat
immediately.
4. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract and milk. Whisk together until smooth
(it should be thicker than a glaze but thinner than frosting). Using a spatula,
spread the brown butter frosting over the warm bars (the frosting will be easier
to spread while the bars are still warm).
Yield: 2 dozen large bars

Hi Jess, I surfed to your blog from a post on ... Pinterest. WOW !!! I am
in total awe of your amazing photographs and directions !!!!!
It's like I could EAT the food right off the computer screen. :)
I know the TIME and EFFORT that goes into taking the photos and then
adjusting them for the blog.
Please consider adding a 'watermark' back to your blog on your photos.
That way, folks would be able to get here more easily. Normally the shared
photos on Pinterest do link back to a blog, but just to be sure.
To illustrate my suggestion, I grabbed a photo and added the blog address
using Arial font in size 14.

I'm certainly going to try these. I love banana bread and never thought of
making bars.

You know, these remind me of this cake I was addicted to when I was
little: Sara Lee Banana Cake! omg - the last two years I've been looking
for a good copycat recipe so I used a Banana cake recipe from AllRecipes
and a Brown Butter Frosting that I found on another site. I'm going to try
yours because it looks like you have the cake to recipe ratio pretty good.
Your pictures look scrumptious! If you feel adventurous, add a little
cream cheese to the icing - it just gives the icing a little bit more
texture/thickness (but don't add too much or it gets too tangy.)
I am baking this tomorrow!!

I also added a little cinnamon to both the bread and the frosting. Yum!

Xilitol sweetener and 1 cup Turbino brown cane sugar. Yes, I do have to

I just made this tonight for tomorrow night's dessert! For those of you
that had a hard time spreading the icing because of it being too
thick...don't use all of the sugar called for! I only used about 2-1/2 C.
of the powdered sugar. I had a little cream I needed to use up, so I put
that in and used my electric hand mixer. Added a couple more dashes of
milk and the spreading consistency was perfect! I never, ever use the
amount of powdered sugar called for in icing recipes as most people can't
handle an icing that is too sweet. To me, an icing that is made with
butter, should taste like butter, not sugar!
Anyway, I'm really excited to try this cake, but have to wait til
tomorrow. Of course, I did taste the icing as I was making it...to die
for!

I made these wonderful Banana Bread bars with the burned sugar frosting.
They are absolutely delicious!!! I shared with the pharmacists at My CVS
Pharmacy, my hairdresser, and my friends. I must admit (& being a
diabetic) I ate 4 of them before I could get them out of the house! Have
bought more bananas and just waiting for them to turn black! Thans

My son is allergic to dairy, eggs and nuts but I really wanted to make
these...so I used a few substitutions and they were awesome!!!! Thank you!
I substituted tofutti cream cheese for the sour cream (only b/c i didn't
have any tofutti sour cream) and then i used a mix of applesauce and
vegetable oil for the eggs, i left out the nuts and then i used rice milk
for the frosting. They were so yummy! Thank you for sharing.

Made these and they were DELICIOUS! Had to share with neighbors or we
could have eaten the whole pan! One question though... once the butter is
boiling, how long do you let it boil before the "change" happens when it
turns a darker brown? I was afraid of burning it, so I'm not sure if I
waited long enough. The frosting still tasted great though! :)

I can sympathize.....I also bake often and am slightly disappointed. Not
that they aren't good, but mine came out just like cake or regular banana
bread. Not sure if its b/c I had to use a 9x13 or b/c I substituted greek
yogurt for sour cream, but I was hoping they would be denser or something
like the picture.
I tweaked the frosting just a tad by using 1c brown sugar & 1.5c powdered
sugar, 1/4c milk...in addition to the butter. No vanilla, but I like the
idea someone else had about the rum extract:-) Either way it was
delicious.

Made these to the recipe exact and they came out well. Yes, frosting is
thick, if you need to thin add a little milk or use less powdered sugar.
Make sure you put it one when you take the bars out of the oven. The heat
helps it spread and it soaks in a little...YUM! When browning the butter
it turns brown VERY quickly, so you need to watch it the entire time while
boiling. I used a Pampered Chef Bar pan and it was the perfect size for
this recipe. Thanks!

Ok, so first let me just say YUM! I made it and enjoyed every bite, BUT
mine was just like cake- not dense at all...
I reviewed the steps again and didn't mistake any measurements at all. :(
Also, the batter nearly spilled over my 10x15 jelly roll pan. I'm not sure
if maybe a traditional baking pan (for brownies for example) was what
should've been used.
I have to admit, I was skeptical about the jelly roll pan, since the
"bars" look so dense and thick in the picture, but I trusted the
directions since I don't do a lot of "sweets" baking....
Just my observations, but still they were delicious and I had no trouble
at all with my icing, and I used all the ingredients to the exact
measurement. I think with the icing, timing is key. It doesn't take long
to prepare and once the other ingredients are added to the butter in the
sauce pan (off the hot eye) the bars should be ready to come out of the
oven.

I just made these and they are amazing!!!!! My first attempt at the
frosting totally flopped. It was so thick I couldn't even stir it, let
alone attempt to spread it on a soft and spongey surface. I'm wondering if
it has to do with altitude? I'm at a higher altitude and wonder if some of
those who are having problems are also?
I tasted a little bit of the frosting dough I had created and decided it
was much too sweet for my taste anyhow (which I probably should have known
since I don't like the intense sweetness of powdered sugar frostings). I
decided to try again and this time I added an extra tablespoon of milk and
just added powdered sugar until it was the consistency and taste that I
wanted. I probably used about 2 cups and it was much more like a glaze. I
poured it over the top, spread it around a bit and let it cool. The
topping ended up being just a thin layer and PERFECT for my taste!! I'm
definitely going to have to take these around to the neighbors so I don't
eat them all. Thank you so much for this awesome recipe!!!

Yes, I always use real butter. I'm not opposed to using other types of
butter but I don't have any experience with them so I can't speak to it.
To make the frosting spreadable, you can always add a touch more milk.
Give the frosting a stir or two and you should be able to tell if it's too
thick. Also be sure to get the frosting on the bars right out of the oven,
because the heat will soften the frosting quite a bit.

When you say 'blend in' the ingredients, does that mean I should use the
mixer or just a spatula?

Outstanding! I made these with reduced fat sour cream and omitted the
frosting. I also added 1/2 cup of chocolate chips - it's the moistest
banana bar I have EVER had!
Posting photos tomorrow on http://dittyandsugar.blogspot.com/

These are PHENOMENAL! They are easy and relatively quick to make, too.
They are not, however, diet friendly! Oh well, they are soooooooo worth
the splurge. I am in love!! (Btw, never commented on a recipe I've tried
from a blog before, and I've tried many - these were just too good not to
comment!) Thank you for sharing this recipe!

As wonderful as these may be, they're not brownies which are defined as
"rich, flat chocolate cake." I have as a project to find the world's best
brownie recipe. This had enough goood reviews that I was tempted to see
it, but was disappointed to find out there was no chocolate listed. They
should be named cake or bars, but not brownies.

O. M. G. These are the best thing I've ever eaten! I love banana breads
but have never found a recipe that wasn't dense and heavy, and raw in the
middle (I admit, I'm cooking and baking challenged!). This is the only way
I'll make it now! I don't have a jelly pan, so mine is more like a cake,
and awesome!! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!!!!

My favorite part of banana bread is the middle slice, at the top...always
my "last bite". I REALLY need to watch my sugar, but have quite a sweet
tooth, so I decided to compromise and make the banana brownie without the
frosting (I know I'm missing out, based on comments, but no doubt I would
be addicted.) This was like having an entire pan of the best "last bite"!!
YUM!

These were okay, more like a banana cake than brownies. Just as glad I
opted not to do the frosting.

Stellar! Perfection! I was a little concerned at first because when mixing
the butter, sour cream and eggs the recipe says "...until creamy." Well,
it never got creamy but stayed rather 'liquidy.' No matter, apparently. I
baked for 20 minutes and it was golden. We like our baked goods slightly
on the doughy side in our family so next time I will take it out about 3
minutes earlier. Will be making again (and again!), perhaps with chocolate
chips. I was really nervous that I would screw up the browned butter...
which I'd never made before. It took longer than I thought... and I
hovered over it like a witch at her cauldron. Just when I thought I'd
blown it, I started seeing circles or orangey-brown bubbling up, and
voila!

Just made these, and they truly were delicious! I LOVED the strong banana
flavor, yet how these were totally different from banana bread or cake.
They're actually bars! So soft, yet dense and substantial. Plush, yet with
a nice chew. Perfect!

OMG these are delicious! Just made them exactly according to the recipe
and they came out perfect! Very moist. The only thing I would do different
next time is put a thinner layer of frosting on, maybe use about half,
because it is very sweet. Delicious though, thanks for the recipe!

AMAZING! I have made these twice now- once for a dessert with a meal I was
taking someone at church, and this morning for a bake sale our FRG was
having! SO GOOD! I won't be able to make these unless I have someplace to
take them, otherwise our diets will go to crap! LOL Thanks!
