Rosemary White Chocolate Banana Bread: A Surprising Twist on a Classic Recipe

Today’s Culinary Innovation: Banana Bread with Rosemary and White Chocolate

Hello, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a unique twist on a classic banana bread recipe that combines the earthy flavor of rosemary with the sweetness of white chocolate. This unexpected flavor combination is perfect for a cozy evening treat or a special weekend brunch.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 3 large ripe bananas (mashed)
• 250g all-purpose flour
• 150g sugar
• 100g unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
• 100g white chocolate chips

To prepare this unique banana bread, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

• mixing bowl
• whisk
• spatula
• loaf pan
• oven

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C) and greasing your loaf pan. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, melted butter, sugar, and eggs. Mix well until smooth. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Gently fold in the chopped rosemary and white chocolate chips.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, slice the banana bread and serve. This unique twist on classic banana bread pairs beautifully with a cup of hot tea or coffee. The combination of fragrant rosemary and sweet white chocolate is sure to surprise and delight your taste buds.

This banana bread weighs approximately 800g once cooked and serves 8 people. Each serving is around 100g and contains approximately 250 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a little extra chopped rosemary on top of the batter before baking. This will add a pop of color and extra flavor to the finished banana bread.

I hope you enjoy this creative and delicious banana bread recipe! Feel free to experiment with different add-ins or adapt the recipe to suit your taste preferences. Happy baking!
