NWR: banana bread

I'm making DH banana bread. Which kind of frosting should I make?

Peaseblossom55 · May 2014

I love making banana bread FI loves it too, I never usually add frosting but buttercream sounds yummy.

lyndausvi · May 2014

I have no idea. I've never put frosting on banana bread before.

I've always done cream cheese or chocolate.

I've never had frosting on banana bread before. Is that a thing?

chibiyui · May 2014

I usually see a glaze on banana bread, so confectioners sugar would be best for that.

SmileDamnit · May 2014

I am a fan of banana bread sans frosting, bit if it must be so, then you can't go wrong with anything cream cheese.

jdluvr06 · May 2014

I have never had frosting on banana bread.

HisGirlFriday13 · May 2014

Apparently neither has DH, who nixed the frosting.

But the muffins are delicious, he says!

I've never frosted banana bread or muffins, but man do I love frosting.

I hate bananas, but I love cream cheese frosting on pumpkin bread.

sophhabobopha · May 2014

I've never thought to add frosting! Trying this immediately.

MamaAlly89 · May 2014

I have never heard of putting frosting on banana bread either! I must try this ASAP. The more ways to get cream cheese frosting into my mouth the better!

Ven&Radio · May 2014

I've never heard of frosting banana bread. I usually top mine with some demerrara sugar, which gives it a nice sparkle and crunch, though.

KytchynWitche · May 2014

I would either do a sugar sprinkle or a glaze. But I like to toast my banana bread and slather it with butter, so my advice may not be best.

climbingsingle · May 2014

I am intrigued by this banana bread icing situation. I would have gone with cream cheese. Damn, that sounds good!

emmyg65 · May 2014

I've never had banana bread with frosting either but CREAM CHEEEEEEEESE.

HisGirlFriday13 · May 2014

This must be a regional thing, because I grew up with frosting on banana bread -- kind of like pumpkin bread always had frosting, too.

I ended up making muffins, sans frosting, and DH is a happy man. So win.

climbingsingle · May 2014

My dad makes zuccini bread and I smother each slice with cream cheese. It's so freaking good.

I put chocolate chips inside banana bread.

Is that off topic?

I do too! Or dried cranberries. I call it cranana bread.

Now I want pumpkin chocolate chip bread. Stupid "seasons." Gimme all the pumpkin.

I have never had frosting on banana bread or pumpkin bread, but I do like to butter banana bread...man..now I want to make banana bread, but FI would be sad, since he is on a diet and cant have it. Maybe I will make it when he is off.

grumbledore · May 2014

None. Weird. But if pressed, I guess cream cheese. But really, none. Bread doesn't need frosting.

kaos16 · May 2014

I'm in the chocolate chip/ no frosting camp too.

HisGirlFriday13 · May 2014

I have never heard of chocolate chips in banana bread. Next time, I'll have to try that!

labro · May 2014

You could also do chocolate chip banana bread muffins instead of loaves! Those were always a favorite snack/fast breakfast of mine when I was a kid. I've never heard of frosting banana bread...or any sort of bread for that matter and we make pumpkin, banana, and zucchini bread all the time. Now I really really want to go bake something....

Fairyjen1 · May 2014

I've never had frosting on banana bread, but I love to cut off a slice, put it in the toaster and slather it in butter!

Darn it! now I want banana bread!

MairePoppy · May 2014

Sometimes, I put chocolate chips, walnuts and halved maraschino cherries in banana bread. No frosting.

LabLove86 · May 2014

Never had frosting on it - but I almost always put chocolate chips in!

cupcait927 · May 2014

First, chocolate chips in banana bread are just about the greatest thing ever. I always make mine with chocolate chips.

Second, I've never seen frosting on banana bread but I think confectioners sugar or cream cheese would go best.

arrippa · May 2014

I can't believe I have never thought about putting frosting on banana bread. Frosting and banana bread are two of my favorite foods. Putting them together would make the ultimate dessert for me.

theartistformerlyknownas · May 2014

You must really hate your husband to make him banana bread. And putting frosting on it is un-American. How dare you.
