Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • 2 In medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt; set aside. In large bowl, beat 1/2 cup butter and 1 cup brown sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating just until combined. Beat in vanilla and bananas until well blended. Gradually add flour mixture, beating on low speed just until incorporated. Pour batter into pan.
  • 3 Bake 45 to 55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 20 minutes. Run knife around edges to loosen loaf; remove from pan to cooling rack.
  • 4 In small saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1/4 cup brown sugar to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly with whisk. Boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in whipping cream. Remove from heat; stir in powdered sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Immediately drizzle over loaf (glaze will harden quickly).

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

To test the bread’s doneness, stick a clean skewer or toothpick in the center. If it comes out clean, the bread is done.

This bread is great served warm; toast in a toaster oven, if desired.

Chef Bob...I added about 1 tsp. of cinnamon and a small handful of toasted coconut. Am making right now for a couple of sick friends, so will try mini loaves. Going to add sliced toasted almonds on top of glaze this time.

This bread is delicious and very moist. The crunch with the salt makes it extra special! I used two loaf pans and it came out great. I took it to a friend's house and got so many compliments!
