Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Crumb Banana Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan with butter or cooking spray.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, and eggs (or flax egg) to the mashed bananas and mix until smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and cinnamon, then add to the wet ingredients and stir gently until combined.
  5. Mix the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and melted butter for the crumb topping until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smooth the top, and sprinkle the crumb topping over the surface.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Slice and serve your Cinnamon Crumb Banana Bread warm or at room temperature.
