Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your ingredients and gather kitchenware.
  2. Mash your ripe bananas until mostly smooth, leaving some small lumps for texture.
  3. Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a separate bowl.
  4. Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then add the eggs and vanilla extract.
  5. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing gently until just combined.
  6. Grease a standard loaf pan and pour in the batter, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  7. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top of the batter.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  9. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
