• Pour batter into a greased 9x5x3 loaf pan and sprinkle the topping mixture over the top. Press the topping mixture lightly into the batter to prevent it from all falling off when you take the bread out of the pan.

Invert pan to remove bread. Let cool completely on a wire rack, crumble side up. Drizzle with caramel sauce just before serving.
