Cinnamon and Sugar Banana Bread is an irresistable and cozy treat for anybody. Who doesn’t love the smell of freshly baked banana bread? There is something so comforting about it! Enjoy this moist bread with that tender crumb texture.

HOW LONG DOES BANANA BREAD LAST IN THE FREEZER?
If stored correctly, banana bread can be kept in the freezer for up to three months. Protect the bread securely in aluminum foil or plastic wrap to keep it fresh, and keep it in an airtight container or resealable freezer bag. This can be thawed at room temperature or reheat it in the oven to give it a freshly baked feel when ready to be served and eaten.
HOW TO TELL IF BANANA BREAD IS DONE
Easiest way to check for the doneness of the bread, you can use a toothpick. Simply put a toothpick or skewer in the middle of the bread. You will know if it’s done when it comes out clean or if there are only a few moist crumbs sticking to it.

TIPS FOR THE BEST BANANA BREAD
There are a couple of things you can do to make the best banana bread. Here are a few tips to keep in mind:
1. Use Overripe Bananas
The riper the bananas, the better. They are sweeter and provide more moisture.
2. Do not Overmix
Overmixing causes the gluten in the flour to form, which can result in dense, tough bread.
3. Grease the Pan Well
This will guarantee easy removal and avoid it sticking to the pan.
4. Cool Properly
Cool the banana bread for about 10-15 minutes. This can help it set better and make it easier to slice.
5. Room Temperature Ingredients
For a smoother mixture and more consistent baking, use butter and eggs that are at room temperature.

HOW TO MAKE CINNAMON AND SUGAR BANANA BREAD
Now that you have gathered all of your ingredients, it is time to make this yummy recipe. Follow the instructions below for the best results!
STEP ONE: PREPARE BATTER
Before anything else, start by preheating the oven to 350F. Grab a large mixing bowl and throw in your bananas, butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla. Mix this all together using a mixer or a beater. Be sure to blend this completely together.
Sprinkle baking soda and salt all over the top of the batter then gently stir flour into the mixture. Be careful with the batter and make sure not to over mix this.

STEP TWO: MAKE THE CINNAMON SUGAR MIXTURE
Get a small bowl or dish to mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Stir this until they are fully incorporated.

STEP THREE: BAKE THE BANANA BREAD
Grab a regular sized 9×5 loaf or any similar sized loaf pan. You can either butter and flour the pan or spray it with a non-stick cooking spray for it not to stick to the bottom of the pan.
Add half of the batter to the pan and put half of the cinnamon sugar mixture all over the batter in the pan. Pour in the rest of the batter and the cinnamon and sugar mix on top. Bake this for about 50 to 60 minutes.
STEP FOUR: SERVE
Don’t forget to check this after the 50 minute mark so it doesn’t get overcooked. Allow to cool then serve, enjoy!
