Photo: © Fredrika Stjärne Active Time: 15 mins Total Time: 1 hrs Yield: 6 Ingredients 6 tablespoons unsalted butter 1/2 cup superfine sugar 1 overripe banana, mashed 1 large egg 1 cup whole milk, at room temperature 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon baking powder Pinch of salt 3/4 cup pure maple syrup 1/2 cup light brown sugar 2 tablespoons bourbon 1/4 cup finely chopped pecans Vanilla ice cream, for serving Directions Preheat the oven to 375°. In a deep, 2-quart baking or soufflé dish, melt the butter in the microwave. Whisk in the superfine sugar and banana, mashing until thoroughly combined. Whisk in the egg and milk. In a bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder and salt; whisk into the baking dish until combined (the batter will be pretty loose). In a microwave-safe cup, heat the maple syrup, light brown sugar and 1/2 cup of hot water at high power until hot, 1 minute. Add the bourbon. Drizzle the syrup mixture over the batter; it will seep to the bottom. Do not stir. Scatter the pecans on top. Set the dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes, until the cake is golden. Let cool for 5 minutes, then scoop into bowls and serve with ice cream. Rate it Print
