Does your family love banana bread?  Add a new twist on the traditional banana bread with this Snickerdoodle Banana Brad recipe.

We love bananas in our house.  Their an easy snack to grab and go and I love packing them in lunches or for snacks during ball games.  My favorite way to eat them is with peanut butter!  Yumm-o!!!  Of course, that takes all of the healthiness out of them, right?  Hey, it’s just added protein!

I usually try to grab green bananas when I’m at the store that way they have a longer shelf life at our house, but sometimes we don’t always gobble them up before they get brown and mushy.  What do you do when life gives you brown, mushy bananas?  You make banana bread.

My girls will eat banana bread in any way, shape, or form, but I have to admit, I was getting tired of the traditional flavor, so I decided to mix it up a little bit with this Snickerdoodle Banana Bread version and my, oh, my….it is so good!  That cinnamon, sugar coating is delish!  This recipe makes two loaves which I love because one doesn’t seem to last long in our house, or I can freeze one for later, or share with a friend!

Snickerdoodle Banana Bread

You will need:

For the bread:

3/4 cup butter, softened

1/3 cup milk

2 cups sugar

4 eggs

4 bananas

4 Cups all-purpose flour

1 Tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 Tablespoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

Topping:

1/2 Cup sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease two 9-inch loaf pans making sure to get the sides of the pan as well.  Combine sugar and cinnamon for the topping and sprinkle generously in the loaf pans making sure to coat the sides and bottoms of the pans.  Reserve some of the mixture for the top of the loaves.

Beat together the butter, milk, and sugar until well mixed.  Add eggs and bananas and mix well.  Next, add the flour baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt and mix just until blended.  Pour the mixture evenly into prepared pans and sprinkle with the rest of the cinnamon/sugar mixture.  Bake for 50-60 minutes.

Remove from oven and carefully run a knife around the edges of the loaves and turn over onto kitchen towels and allow to cool.

Just look at that yummy cinnamon/sugar topping!
