1¾ cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder

Place the banana, tablespoon of butter and ¼ cup of the brown
sugar in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat. Once the
mixture begins to simmer, add the rum. Let mixture reduce, about
5 minutes, and then remove from heat; reserve.
