Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking dish by greasing it or lining with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Swirl occasionally until it turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 5 to 7 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine brown sugar and mashed bananas. Add the cooled brown butter, egg, milk, and flavor extract, and whisk until smooth.
  4. In another bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gently fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Fold in the rainbow sprinkles carefully.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top. Bake for about 1 hour, covering with foil halfway through.
  8. Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 1 hour before slicing.
