Caramel Toffee Banana Bread

Can you believe it’s been almost 4 months since I started this blog? Over these past 4 months our coworkers have become quite accustomed to frequent baked goods. Lately I have been doing baking for family members or friends and have not been sending as many to our offices, and I have started to hear about it! Most of the time I am happy to get rid of my baked goods so that it takes away my temptations, but my will power has been improving, and I have started to become a little selfish. Some of the things I make I like to keep just for us at home, and this bread was one of them.

I have been thinking about this bread for months. I had a caramel toffee scone earlier this summer and loved the flavor combination. I was trying to think of what I could create with these flavors and one of my first ideas was banana bread. What I found interesting was that none of the flavors really stood out, but they all just blended together perfectly. This bread had to cook a little longer than my usual banana bread, and got a little darker, but it is completely worth it in the end. Derek had some with his breakfast, and I took a slice to work with me everyday bursting at the seems not to dig into my desk drawer and eat it right away. I have more frozen bananas ready to go in the freezer and every time I look at them I just can’t wait to make this bread again. Enjoy!

    Too funny.. I always bring my goodies into the office too and then they complain bc I’m “making them fat”.. so then when I don’t bring anything in they want to know why they haven’t had any cupcakes lately! Make up your mind people! :) I bet I wouldn’t have any complaints with this bread..
