I make a mean banana bread. I mean, it melts in your mouth when you eat it. And the loaf is usually gone by the next morning after breakfast.
When I saw a recipe that added cinnamon and sugar to it, I thought "Something that can make my banana bread even better?! Impossible!" Oh...it was possible. These two ingredients added to this perfected banana bread recipe is just the icing on the cake (or topping on the banana bread).
Cinnamon Swirl Banana Bread
For the bread:
- 3 over-ripe bananas, smashed up
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1t vanilla
- 1t baking soda
- dash of salt
- 1 1/2 cups flour
For the swirl:
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 T cinnamon
1. Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 9 x 5 pan with non-stick spray.
2. Mix bananas, butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla together. Sprinkle baking soda and salt around the top of the banana mixture. Then gently stir in the flour. Careful not to over-mix!
3. In a small dish, mix together the swirl ingredients.
4. Add 1/2 of the patter to the loaf pan, and then sprinkle half of the swirl mixture all over the batter in the pan. Add the rest of the batter, and then sprinkle the leftover swirl mix on top.
5. Bake for 50-60 minutes.
The smell of this bread when it's baking is phenonminal. So mouth-water you'll want to have at least 2 slices once it comes out. It's extremely moist, which is good so then I don't have to glob on the butter. Never again will I make just regular banana bread.
*A fun twist, add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to your batter! Yum!
