Ingredients
  

Banana Bread

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened 113 g
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed 200 g
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 very ripe bananas, mashed 300 g
  • ¼ cup sour cream 60 g
  • 1¾ cups all-purpose flour 220 g
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 12 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped

Cookies and Cream Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar 120 g
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons milk (or heavy cream)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 Oreo cookies, finely crushed

Topping

  • 3 to 4 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar together using an electric mixer for 2 to 3 minutes until light and creamy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  • Add the mashed bananas and sour cream. Mix until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture and gently fold with a spatula until almost combined. Avoid overmixing.
  • Gently fold the chopped Oreo cookies into the batter, making sure they are evenly distributed.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly using a spatula.
  • Bake for approximately 55 to 65 minutes. At the 45 minute mark, check the top of the bread for browning. If it is getting too dark, loosely cover the pan with aluminum foil and continue baking. Begin checking for doneness around 50 minutes. A skewer inserted into a section of bread without Oreo pieces should come out without wet batter.
  • Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add additional milk a little at a time until the glaze reaches a thick but pourable consistency.
  • Stir the finely crushed Oreo cookies into the glaze until evenly distributed.
  • Spoon the cookies and cream glaze over the completely cooled banana bread, allowing some to drip down the sides.
  • Immediately sprinkle the chopped Oreo cookies over the glaze before it sets.

Notes

Glaze: milk or heavy cream both work. Add it slowly until the glaze is thick but pourable.
Make ahead: bake the loaf a day ahead and glaze it on the day you serve it.
Freezing: freeze the plain loaf, wrapped in plastic wrap and foil, for up to 3 months. Thaw it on the counter, then glaze and top it.
Storage: covered at room temperature for up to 2 days, then the fridge.
