• 1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar

• 2 eggs, at room temperature

• 1 scant cup mashed banana

• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon baking powder

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• 1 teaspoon ground ginger

• 1 stick plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled

• Preheat the oven to 325 (F).

• Put the sugar and eggs in a freestanding electric mixer with a paddle attachment (or use a handheld electric whisk) and beat until well incorporated.

• Once the sugar and egg mixture is light and fluffy, beat in the mashed banana.

• Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and ginger to the sugar mixture. Mix it thoroughly until all the dry ingredients have been incorporated into the egg mixture.

• Pour in the melted butter and beat until all the ingredients are well mixed.

• Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth over using a rubber spatula.

• Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until firm to the touch and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool slightly in the pan before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely
