MAPLE OAT NUT BANANA BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350F Grease a 9x5 loaf pan and line with a sling of parchment paper with long ends. This will help you lift the bread out for neater slicing.
• Cream the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy, scraping down the sides of the bowl a few times. I do this in a stand mixer, but you can use electric beaters or a good old fashioned wooden spoon.
• Beat in the vanilla, maple syrup, and eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl as needed. Blend in the mashed bananas, oats, baking soda, and salt.
• Fold in the flour and then the walnuts. Turn the batter into your prepared pan and spread out evenly. Bake for 30 minutes, then turn down the oven to 325F and bake for another 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out without wet batter on it. You may need to tent the bread with foil for the last part of baking so it doesn't get too brown on top. Cool on a rack.
• To make the glaze, put the butter and maple syrup in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes, then take off the stove and add the maple extract (if using) and sifted sugar. Stir or whisk well until there are no lumps. Let the glaze cool for about 15 minutes, stirring it occasionally to keep it smooth. Pour or spread over the cooled bread, and top with a sprinkle of oats and walnuts. Let the frosting harden before you slice the bread.

BANANA NUT SCONES WITH MAPLE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, beat the mashed bananas, yogurt, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract together. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together. Grate the frozen butter (I use a box grater to grate it; a food processor also works for grating). Toss the grated butter into the flour mixture and combine it with a pastry cutter, two forks, a food processor, or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Set aside.
• Drizzle wet ingredients over flour mixture, add the walnuts, and then toss the mixture together with a rubber spatula until everything appears moistened. Try your best to not overwork the dough at any point. Dough will be sticky and a little wet. Drop scones, 1/4 cup of dough each, at least 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Brush scones with milk, then top with a little coarse sugar if desired for extra crunch. Tastes great!
• Bake for 20-25 minutes or until lightly golden and cooked through. Remove from the oven and cool as you make the icing. The scones taste even better after they cool down!
• In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and maple syrup together, whisking occasionally. Once the butter has melted, remove from heat and whisk in the sifted confectioners' sugar. Drizzle over scones.
• Scones are best enjoyed right away, though leftover scones keep well at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 3-5 days.
