Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease 8x4-inch loaf pan with oil or butter.
Step 2
Beat together 2 tablespoons of butter and cream cheese at medium speed until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the sugar until well-combined. Beat in the egg.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 4
In another separate bowl, stir the bananas, milk, 2 tablespoons of rum, lime zest, 2 teaspoons lime juice, and vanilla extract until combined.
Step 5
Add the dry ingredients into the cream cheese mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the banana mixture.
Step 6
Gently mix in 1/4 cup of toasted pecans and 1/4 cup coconut flakes.
Step 7
Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool bread in the pan for 10 minutes and transfer onto a wire rack.
Step 8
While the bread is cooling, prepare the topping. Combine the brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of butter, 2 teaspoons lime juice, and 2 teaspoons rum in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir constantly for 1 minute, or until the sugar has dissolved, and the mixture is smooth.
Step 9
Remove from heat and add in 2 tablespoons of pecans and 2 tablespoons of coconut.
Step 10
Spoon over the topping while the bread is still warm. Let the bread cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
