Maple-Bourbon Banana Bread

🧂 Ingredients

• 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  spooned and leveled
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 ½ teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
• 4 eggs

  room temperature
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• ⅔ cup whole milk
• ¼ cup bourbon
• 1 ½ teaspoons maple extract
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups mashed overripe bananas

  about 5-6 bananas
• 1 (8-ounce) package of chopped toffee

Instructions

• 1 Heat oven to 350 degrees. 
• 2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and
  baking powder.
• 3 In a different large mixing bowl, whisk together the white sugar and dark brown
  sugar to try to get as many lumps out of the brown sugar. Whisk in the eggs,
  vegetable oil, whole milk, bourbon, maple extract and vanilla extract until
  smooth. Again, make sure to break up any lumps from the brown sugar. Stir in the
  mashed bananas.
• 4 Add a few spoonfuls of the flour mixture to the wet mixture and stir to combine.
  Repeat in batches until all the flour mixture is combined. Stir in chopped
  toffee. 
• 5 Coat two 8 ½-inch-by-4 ½-inch loaf pans or eight 5 ½-inch-by-3-inch mini loaf
  pans with cooking spray. Alternatively, you can also use one 8 ½-inch-by-4
  ½-inch loaf pan and five 5 ½-inch-by-3-inch mini loaf pans. Pour the banana
  bread batter into the loaf pan, leaving about an inch or so at the top. Bake
  until a toothpick comes out clean, about 40-45 minutes for the mini loaf pans
  and about 55-60 minutes for the larger loaf pan. If baking two different sizes,
  you can bake both at the same time and just leave the larger loaf pan in for the
  remaining time. 
• 6 Allow to cool. Cover tightly with plastic wrap. Enjoy!
