Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, canola oil, sour cream, and instant espresso until smooth.

  4. Mash the bananas and fold into the batter until evenly distributed.
  5. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and swirl caramel sauce over the top.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  7. Cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
  8. Prepare the glaze by melting butter, combining with brown sugar and vanilla, and simmering until thickened.
  9. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread and allow to set for about an hour.
