Banana Heaven

Here's the recipe for the banana bread and caramel sauce I made last night! AWESOME!!! The syrup can also be used on waffles, ice cream, cheesecake, straight from a spoon!

Bread:

1 c sugar
1/2 c. butter
2 eggs
3 mashed bananas
1 t. baking soda
2 c. flour
1/2 t. salt

Cream ingredients together. Pour batter into greased and floured loaf pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for one hour. For smaller loaves, bake 45 minutes.

Syrup:

1 stick butter
1 c. sugar
1/2 c. buttermilk
1/2 t. baking soda
1 t. vanilla

In a saucepan combine everything except for vanilla. Bring to a boil. When boiling, stir and continue to boil for 5 minutes (mine took closer to 7 minutes). Remove from heat when caramel in color and add vanilla.

While bread is warm, slice into thick slices. Lightly soak pieces with warm syrup.
Top with ice cream, more warm syrup, fresh bananas and whipped cream.
