Caramelized Banana Bread With Brown Sugar Topping

Spray a Suvie pan thoroughly with non-stick cooking spray. Peel and mash overripe bananas. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.

In a medium bowl, vigorously whisk together the mashed bananas, eggs, vanilla, buttermilk, canola oil, and ⅔ cup brown sugar until bubbly, about 4 minutes. Alternatively, combine in an electric mixer and whip on high for 2 minutes.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and fold gently with a rubber spatula. Add the chopped pecans, if using, and fold until incorporated.

Pour the batter into the prepared Suvie pan and then layer banana slices on top.

Insert pan into the bottom zone of Suvie, input settings, and cook now or schedule, rotating the pan halfway through cooking. Bottom Zone: Bake at 325°F for 40 minutes (for Suvie 2.0, Bake at 375°F)

After the banana bread has cooked, carefully remove the pan and sprinkle brown sugar over the top of the bananas.

Return pan to Suvie and broil for 5-6 minutes, or until the bananas are golden brown, watching closely to avoid burning.

Remove banana bread from your Suvie and allow to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then invert onto a cutting board, cut into slices, and serve.
