Choco Banana Babka Knot
We had a couple of bananas at home looking for an excuse to be used. Now, I know that the first thing that should come to mind is "Banana Bread," but I wanted to do something different. I heard that bananas can be a replacement for eggs in baking recipes, so I thought it could be a good opportunity to give it a shot. And the recipe I chose to test it on is Babka, more specifically - choco banana babka knot. The reason is that I can use it for the dough (as a replacement for an egg), but also in the filling. Bananas give a beautiful texture and moisture, and both the dough and the filling can benefit from it. The result was amazing, very banana-y but absolutely subtle. If you don't mind using eggs in your recipes, still make this one and use the banana only for the filling.
