INGREDIENTS:
BANANA BREAD:
2 cups AP flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup brown sugar, packed
½ cup butter (1 stick), room temperature
2 eggs
⅓ cup sour cream
4 ripe bananas, mashed
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla
GLAZE:
¼ cup brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons heavy cream
⅓ cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
PREPARATION:
-Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and 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.
-Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients until just 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.
