Salted Caramel Banana Bread*

* not tested /

Ingredients:

2 cups AP flour

1 tsp cinnamon

3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

2 eggs

4 ripe bananas, mashed

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temp

1/3 cup sour cream

1 1/2 tsp vanilla

Glaze:

1/4 cup brown sugar, packed

2 tbsp heavy cream

1/2 tsp kosher salt

2 tbsp butter

1/3 cup powdered sugar

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 9×5 baking dish.

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together. Set aside.

In a large bowl, beat the brown sugar and butter until creamy and then add the eggs one at a time.

Add the sour cream, mashed bananas, and vanilla to the sugar mixture and beat until combined. Do not overmix.

Transfer batter to the prepared loaf pan and bake for 55-60 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. While bread is cooling, make the glaze.

In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar and butter and bring to a boil over medium heat. Continue cooking until the sugar has fully dissolved, approximately 1 minute.

Stir in heavy cream and remove the pan from the heat. Add in the powdered sugar and salt, mix until smooth.

Allow glaze to cool for 5 minutes before pouring it over the bread.
