# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Coat a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
02 -
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and kosher salt. Set aside.
03 -
In another bowl, beat sugar and softened butter together using a stand mixer or hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
04 -
Beat in eggs one at a time until fully incorporated, then mix in mashed bananas until thoroughly combined.
05 -
Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
06 -
Divide batter evenly among three bowls. Tint each bowl with a different food coloring: one pink, one purple, one neon green. Mix until colors are evenly distributed.
07 -
Using an ice cream scoop or 1/4 cup measuring cup, alternate scooping colored batters into the prepared loaf pan, layering rainbow sprinkles between dollops until all batter is used.
08 -
Bake in preheated oven for 45 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
09 -
Let bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove loaf from pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
10 -
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth.
11 -
Pour icing over completely cooled bread, then finish with a generous amount of rainbow sprinkles.
# Supplementary Details:
01 -
Ensure bread is fully cooled before adding icing to prevent glaze from melting.
