Prep and Bake:

-Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.

-In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Mix in the melted butter, then stir in the baking soda and salt.

-Add the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract, mixing well. Gradually incorporate the flour until just combined.

-Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top.

-Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

-Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Make the Salted Caramel Glaze:

-In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, dissolve the sugar into the water. Once dissolved, increase the heat and bring to a boil without stirring.

-Cook until the syrup becomes a deep amber hue, swirling the pan occasionally.

-Carefully stir in the heavy cream (the mixture will bubble vigorously). Remove from heat.

-Stir in the butter and sea salt until smooth.

Finishing Touches:

-Drizzle the warm caramel over the cooled banana bread.

-Allow the glaze to set before slicing and serving.
