Vietnamese-style banana bread, which is almost a cake, is a clever way to extend the flavors of ripe bananas and nearly stale bread. The bananas, condensed milk, and coconut milk make this a rich, dense bread, which is sometimes served with afternoon tea. Some recipes add rum and/or eggs for an even more decadent treat.
