You know what I love? Banana bread. You know what I don’t love? Taking pictures of banana bread.
Doesn’t it look like I’ve just sliced a brick in to pieces? Sigh.

Is there a specific recipe for the caramel syrup or just use a standard recipe?
michelle lopez says
I just used Trader Joe's caramel syrup for the recipe, but I'm willing to be that a homemade caramel syrup would make this recipe even more amazing!

Sounds so good! May have to try a version of this. Also, your pictures are far from crappy – I think they are quite lovely actually 🙂

Aw thanks! I'm a little embarrassed since they're not my best pictures, but the recipe is so good that I had to share them anyway.

I've always been intimidated by the prospect of making banana bread. This really put me at ease. I thought the toffee pieces might be over powering but they melded so well with the bread. Delish!
