1

Preheat the oven to 160°C, gas mark 3.

2

Place the peeled, chopped and overripe bananas in a medium bowl and mash with a fork. Add the oil, vegan egg replacement, water, 150g of the coconut sugar and 1 tsp of vanilla extract and whisk to combine. Add the sifted flour, cinnamon and toasted, skinned and chopped almonds. Mix, to combine.

3

Pour into a lightly greased 25cm x 11cm loaf pan lined with non-stick baking paper and bake for 1 hour and 25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

4

Allow to cool for 5 minutes, before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

5

To make the caramel, add the coconut cream, 260g of coconut sugar and maple syrup to a small sauce pot. Bring to a bubble over a medium heat, and stir until the coconut sugar has dissolved. Reduce the heat to medium-low, so that the mixture is only bubbling gently. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, stirring every 2-3 minutes to ensure the mixture doesn’t stick to the sides of the pot or burn.

6

Whisk the second teaspoon of vanilla and salt into the caramel mixture, then remove from the heat.

7

Transfer the mixture to a sealed container and place in the refrigerator to set.

8

Spread the caramel over the cooled banana bread and sprinkle with toasted almonds.
