Almost everyone I know has a soft spot for banana bread. I’ve yet to encounter someone who isn’t captivated by its moist and delicious allure. And while it’s essentially cake, we generously dub it “bread” – a clever excuse to relish it for breakfast without any lingering guilt. My personal favorite has always been the banana bread sprinkled with chocolate chips. However, the moment I stumbled upon the salted caramel version, I was instantly intrigued.
Pairing bananas with caramel is akin to a culinary romance, a synergy that’s undeniable. And this particular recipe doesn’t disappoint. If you’re daunted by the idea of crafting a homemade caramel glaze, fret not. The method I recommend is straightforward. Begin by simmering butter and brown sugar until the sugar melds seamlessly. Then, introduce the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and the all-important salt, elevating it to the realm of salted caramel. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before drizzling it atop your bread. Whether you opt to unpan the loaf before this caramel cascade is entirely your call!
