Also you can add more than it said in the recipe, it’s totally up to your taste. If you don’t like the crunch in your bread, just skip these two.

For that recipe you don’t even need a mixer. If you want just a simple version of homemade banana bread, then must check my Chocolate Chip Banana Bread recipe, too. This banana bread stuffed with cream cheese filling, chocolate chips, and pecans with irresistible cinnamon streusel is more like delicious banana coffee cake, just baked in a loaf pan. Will keep wrapped at room temperature, for about 5 days.Cream Cheese Banana Bread with Crumb Topping is easy homemade bread perfect for breakfast or snack, but also a very satisfying dessert. Let cool, then gently invert to remove from pan.Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out dry, about 1 hour.Sprinkle the streusel topping over the top in big clumps until the top is well covered. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Add the pecans and the chocolate and stir gently until evenly distributed. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until no dry flour remains.Add the melted butter, eggs, both sugars, and vanilla extract and mix until combined. In a separate mixing bowl, add the bananas and mash with a fork until no large pieces remain.Add the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt to a large mixing bowl and whisk together until combined.Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray (or grease with butter). Set aside while you make the banana bread.

In a small bowl, add the softened butter, brown sugar, flour and cinnamon and mix with your hands until it forms rough clumps.But it will definitely be one you make again and again.

I doubt it will be the last banana bread you’ll make. (Like they do in this Pumpkin Coffee Cake with Pecan Streusel.) Those cinnamon-scented sugary crumbs make everything better. I’ve played around with alternative flours and different nuts.īut there’s something special about using a mix of white sugar and brown sugar, a generous splash of vanilla, a big handful of toasted pecans, chocolate chips or chopped chocolate.Īnd you’ve probably had banana bread with most of those things before.īut if you really want to gild the lily, your banana bread should be streusel-topped. I’ve done all brown sugar versions of banana bread. It’s the best of banana bread and coffee cake, which, well, makes for an excellent breakfast for someone with a sweet-tooth and works well for that afternoon snack or dessert. It’s got chocolate.Īnd best of all, it’s got a big-crumbed brown sugar streusel topping. This banana bread is, right now, my favorite take on the classic.
