Ingredients
•
cooking spray
•
2 cups all-purpose flour
•
1 teaspoon baking soda
•
1 teaspoon baking powder
•
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•
1/8 teaspoon salt
•
2 large very ripe bananas
•
1/2 cup caramel macchiato flavored liquid coffee creamer (such as International Delight®)
•
2/3 cup white sugar
•
1/2 cup vegetable oil
•
2 eggs
•
2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
•
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
•
6 tablespoons packed brown sugar
•
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
2
Whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl.
3
Mash bananas in a large mixing bowl with a fork until almost smooth. Stir in coffee creamer, sugar, oil, eggs, and instant coffee granules until coffee granules have dissolved. Gradually stir in flour mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time, until batter is almost smooth. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, about 1 hour. Allow to cool before removing from pan, about 30 minutes.
5
While the bread is cooling, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Mix in brown sugar and vanilla and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce the heat and simmer syrup for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to a warm but liquid temperature.
6
Pour glaze over cooled banana bread. Serve when glaze has set.
