Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan.
  2. Mash 3-4 ripe bananas until smooth and add melted butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  4. Fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients gently to avoid overmixing.
  5. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mix. Then add the remaining batter on top.
  6. Gently swirl the batter with a knife for a marbled effect.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, testing for doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before preparing the glaze.
  9. Mix powdered sugar with milk until smooth. Drizzle over sliced bread before serving.
