Caramel Macchiato Banana Bread Loaf

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Caramel Macchiato Banana Bread Loaf.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).

2. Step 2

   While it warms up, grab a 9x5-inch loaf pan and give it a light spray with cooking spray to ensure your banana bread slides out easily later.

3. Step 3

   In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.

4. Step 4

   Whisk these dry ingredients together until they’re well blended, creating a fragrant base for your bread.

5. Step 5

   Next, in a separate large bowl, take those ripe bananas and mash them with a fork until they’re mostly smooth.

6. Step 6

   The riper the bananas, the sweeter your bread will be! Stir in the coffee creamer, white sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and instant coffee granules, making sure the coffee granules dissolve completely for that delightful hint of flavor.

7. Step 7

   Now, it’s time to bring the two mixtures together.

8. Step 8

   Gradually add the flour mixture to the banana mixture, about half a cup at a time, stirring gently until the batter is just combined and smooth.

9. Step 9

   You want to keep it light and fluffy, so don’t overmix! Pour the luscious batter into your prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly to ensure even baking.

10. Step 10

    Pop the pan into your preheated oven and let it bake for about an hour.

11. Step 11

    You’ll know it’s ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

12. Step 12

    Once baked to perfection, let the bread cool in the pan for about 30 minutes.

13. Step 13

    This is the perfect time to savor the delicious aroma wafting through your kitchen! After it cools, carefully transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.

14. Step 14

    While your banana bread is cooling, let’s whip up a delightful glaze.

15. Step 15

    Melt some butter in a saucepan over medium heat, then stir in brown sugar and vanilla extract.

16. Step 16

    Bring this mixture to a gentle boil, stirring continuously to dissolve the sugar.

17. Step 17

    Once it’s bubbling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about three minutes.

18. Step 18

    After simmering, remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the glaze to cool slightly until it’s warm but still liquid.

19. Step 19

    Now, pour this sweet glaze over your cooled banana bread, letting it soak in and create a beautiful, shiny finish.

20. Step 20

    Allow the glaze to set for a moment before slicing into your delicious creation.
