When anyone asks me if I froze things for when the baby comes… I literally just think of the amounts of banana bread I have in there.

And this salted caramel one is hands down one of my favorites to date. It is made with all vegan and gluten-free ingredients. And it has a delicious homemade caramel sauce in the center and on top. It is absolutely to die for.

This is definitely one of those banana breads that is on the sweeter side compared to a lot of my other banana bread recipes. Thanks to the caramel sauce and it has a little sprinkle of sea salt in it, making this banana bread even more flavorful. This is the type of recipe you can bake and enjoy for breakfast, brunch, snack, dessert – pretty much anything.

I love warming up a slice and adding some coconut ice cream on top – it is too die for!
