Salted Caramel Coconut Banana Bread

This salted caramel coconut banana bread is INCREDIBLY soft, loaded with tons of coconut, and glazed with an absolutely insane salted caramel glaze.–there’s no stopping at just one slice!

More like stopping at slice number 27. And even there I have my doubts.

Can I get an AMEN for the simple yet mighty trio of salted caramel, coconut, and banana? Completely mind-blowing and the most game-changing thing your banana bread game has probably ever seen.

Yes, this is breakfast food. No, we will not be taking any further questions at this point in time.

Is it even a surprise at this point? Y’all know my HUGE and slightly-getting-outta-hand love affair with caramel.

So basically what we have here is a SUPER tropical-themed banana bread that’s pumped up with not one, not two, but THREE bananas, a huge pile of flaked coconut, and baked up until perfectly golden and soft inside. It is SO ridiculously moist inside you will actually be in awe.

Don’t eat it all quiteeeee yet though. We’ve got salted caramel business yet to attend to. >>>

And that means all the healthy things like butter, sugar, yada, yada….the point is it makes a luxuriously smooth, slightly salty caramel sauce that you will want to drape in EXCESS amounts over your picture-perfect coconut banana bread.

And THAT, friends, is one winning salted caramel coconut banana bread slice up there. ^^

As is all the other slices you are about to devour in one sitting.

Instructions

Banana Bread

• Make the bread: Preheat oven to 350F and grease an 11" loaf pan and set aside.
• In a large bowl, beat bananas, sugar, butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and coconut until batter is just combined.

Salted Caramel Sauce
