Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth, leaving a few chunks for texture.
  3. Add brown sugar and eggnog to the mashed bananas, mixing until smooth and creamy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and eggnog until smooth for the glaze.
  10. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled banana bread and serve fresh.
