Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter (for streusel)
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (for streusel)
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for streusel)
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for streusel)
- 0.25 cup chopped pecans (optional, for streusel)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish and set aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
In another bowl, prepare the streusel topping by combining the butter, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and chopped pecans if using. Mix with a fork or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the banana batter in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cobbler comes out clean.
Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving warm. Optionally, top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
