Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Roll Banana Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas until smooth, then mix in granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until silky.
  3. Sprinkle in baking soda and salt, then add flour, folding gently until just combined.
  4. Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl for the swirl filling.
  5. Pour half the batter into the loaf pan, add half the cinnamon sugar, then layer the remaining batter and top with the rest of the cinnamon sugar.
  6. Swirl through the batter lightly with a knife to create a marbled effect.
  7. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  9. Whisk powdered sugar and milk together for the glaze, adjusting consistency as needed.
  10. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread and let it set for a beautiful finish.
