Ingredients

For the Bread
For the Sauce
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup dark rum
  • 1 tsp orange zest

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F . Grease or spray with cooking spray a 9 x 4 loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the mashed bananas, eggs, sugar, melted coconut oil, Greek yogurt, rum extract and vanilla extract. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Make a well in the center and pour the wet ingredients into the well. Stir until the dry ingredients are incorporated.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. About 1 hour.
Make the Sauce
  1. In a small saucepan,over medium heat, melt the butter. Add in the brown sugar and water, stirring to completely dissolve the brown sugar.
  2. Cook the mixture until bubbling around the edges, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and carefully stir in the rum and orange zest.
  3. Pour 1/2 of the sauce evenly over the warm loaf. Allow the sauce to completely soak in, about 30 minutes. Turn the loaf out of the pan. Slice and serve warm.
