Bananas Foster Banana Bread Recipe takes your Banana Bread to the next level with an extra brown sugar glaze and rum!
Last week I had a crazy week, well okay I lied- the last few weeks. But last week was nuts. Normal for me. Anyways on Thursday night I wanted to make some banana bread. I started baking at about 11pm and just made a bananas foster base for the bread. I planned on keeping it that way but on Friday I was headed to a Pinterest Party and wanted to jazz it up a bit so I made a bananas foster sauce to pour on top and let it soak into the bread. Welcome Bananas Foster Banana Bread.
This banana bread is great with or without the bananas foster soak. But my middle name is Bailey, so naturally I went with over the top 😉
Everyone loved this, including my bestest friends. So make this, quick, delicious, boozy bread!
While eating this I thought to myself a great idea, Elizabeth! I loved this bread. I also loved dipping pieces in a bowl of bananas foster sauce. I have a feeling that you would too.

Corinne says
What is 1/2 tsp banana bread?
Where are the eggs in the ingredients list?
Where is the vanilla in the ingredients list?
I printed this recipe to give it a try but you really need to fix the post so that it is accurate.
Elizabeth says
Hi Corrine, I am so sorry about that. I usually end up writing my posts really late at night. I listed the vanilla in the directions, the eggs I forgot in the ingredient list (2) and 1/2 tsp banana bread is meant to be banana extract! Sorry for the confusion. Thanks for letting me know 🙂
corinne says
