  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.

  3. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

  5. Prepare topping: In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon for the topping.
  6. Add batter to pan: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Add topping: Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar topping evenly over the batter.
  8. Bake: Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool and serve: Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Use overripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • You can add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans for extra texture.
  • This bread tastes even better the next day.
