Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Roll Banana Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash 3-4 very ripe bananas until smooth. Stir in 1/3 cup of melted butter, then add two eggs and a splash of vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1.5 cups of flour, 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon of baking powder.
  4. Fold the dry mixture into the wet banana mixture using a spatula until just combined.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together 0.25 cups of brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon for the cinnamon swirl.
  6. Pour half of the banana bread batter into a greased loaf pan and sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture over it. Add the remaining batter and cinnamon mixture on top.
  7. Gently swirl through the batter with a knife to create a marbled effect.
  8. Bake for 60-65 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
