Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan with butter or line with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine mashed bananas with melted butter. Stir in granulated sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract until well-blended.
- In another bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the banana mixture until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.
- Mix the ground cinnamon and brown sugar to create the cinnamon swirl.
- Pour half of the banana bread batter into the prepared loaf pan, sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture over it, add the remaining batter, and top with the rest of the cinnamon sugar, swirling gently with a knife.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for the sweetest and most flavorful bread.
- Do not over-mix the batter to maintain a light texture.
- If the top browns too quickly, cover with foil in the last 15 minutes of baking.
