Brown Butter Banana Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    8 tablespoons butter
    2 cups flour (I actually used 10 ounces)
    3/4 cup brown sugar
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    4 bananas (equal to about 13 ounces)
    2 eggs
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease an 8 inch loaf pan.
    In a medium saucepan over high melt the butter. Once it is melted lower the heat to medium and swirl the butter around the pan instead of stirring it. It will take about 5 minutes for it to brown. Occasionally swirl it. You will notice when it turns brown because it literally, turns brown. Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool while getting everything else ready.
    In a large bowl sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
    In another bowl whisk the eggs then add the mashed bananas, vanilla and the semi-cooled butter.
    Add the liquid to the dry mixture. Mix just until incorporated, don't over mix. I only used maybe less then 15-20 stirs. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan.
    Bake at 350 degrees for 60-70 minutes, until it is browned on top and a fork inserted comes out clean. Cool for at least 15 minute sin the pan before cutting and serving.
    Cut loaf into 10 slices and serve, warm, with extra butter?!
