Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups flour
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- 4 ripe bananas
- ½ cup softened butter
- 1 egg (beaten)
- 1 tablespoon bourbon (optional)
Instructions
- At home (or in camp) whisk together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Prepare a campfire or a bed of about 20 coals.
- Place the bananas in a medium/large bowl and smash with a fork until fairly smooth. Add the butter, egg, and bourbon and stir until combined.
- Add the dry mixture, stirring until it’s completely incorporated with the wet ingredients.
- Line your Dutch oven with a sheet of parchment paper. This will help prevent the bread from sticking to the pot.
- Pour the batter into the Dutch oven and cover with the lid. Make a ring of 5 coals and place the Dutch oven on top. Place the remaining 15 coals on the lid.
- Bake for about 30 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and carefully lift the bread out of the oven.
- Cool for a few minutes, then slice and enjoy!
