1

In a mixer, cream tempered butter and sugars. Then mix in eggs one at a time.

2

In a bowl, mash bananas, vanilla, and schnapps together with a fork to purée. (Alternatively, if your bananas are very ripe, this can all just be added to the mixer after the eggs and mixed well to purée bananas.)

3

In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

4

Add half of the dry ingredients to the mixer, followed by banana purée (unless you already mixed this in). Finish with the remainder of the dry ingredients.

5

Transfer batter to an oiled loaf pan and bake at 350°F until cooked through, rotating once during cooking, about 45 minutes total.

My recipe is the same except I put nuts in it, but no rum
