For the Loaves:

  • 1 1/2 sticks softened butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 very ripe bananas mashed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 7 kraft caramels plus 1 teaspoon milk melted until smooth (in the microwave for about 1 min 15 seconds)
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts or any nut of choice

For the Icing:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons heavy cream or milk for a thinner icing

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place butter and sugar into a stand or electric mixer. Beat until light and fluffy. Add in eggs, vanilla, and mashed bananas. Mix on low until well combined, then slowly drizzle in melted caramel until combined. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Slowly add to wet ingredients along with the hazelnuts until just combined. Scoop batter into well-greased mini muffin tins 3/4 way full. Bake for 22-25 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Let cool.
