Cinnamon Swirl Banana Bread with Cream Cheese Frosting For the banana bread: 3 large ripe bananas, finely mashed (about 330–350g) 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour 6 tbsp (90g) unsalted butter, melted 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar 1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar 1 large egg, room temperature 3/4 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1 tbsp vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract 1/4 cup (60g) sour cream or whole-milk Greek yogurt, room temperature For the cinnamon swirl: 3 tbsp (42g) unsalted butter, melted 1/3 cup (70g) brown sugar 1 1/2 tbsp cinnamon 1 tbsp all-purpose flour Pinch of salt For cream cheese frosting: 4 oz (113g) full-fat cream cheese, softened 2 tbsp (28g) unsalted butter, softened 3/4 cup (90g) powdered sugar 1/2 tsp vanilla Pinch of salt 1–2 tbsp heavy cream or milk, as needed Method 1. Make the banana batter In a large bowl, mash the bananas. Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar and mix well. Add the egg and whisk for 2–3 minutes, until the mixture becomes lighter and slightly fluffy. Add the melted butter, vanilla, and sour cream. Mix until smooth and well combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Don't overmix. Mix the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, flour, and salt until you have a thick, spreadable paste. 4. Layer and swirl Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment. Pour in about half of the banana batter. Dollop half of the cinnamon mixture over the batter and gently swirl it in with a knife. Add the remaining banana batter, then spoon the remaining cinnamon mixture over the top. Swirl again, being careful not to overdo it. Preheat your oven to 350 f. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Beat the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt and beat until creamy. Add 1–2 tablespoons of heavy cream or milk until you get a smooth, spreadable consistency. Spread over the completely cooled banana bread. #Recipe #bananabread #cinnamon — @iramsfoodstoryのTikTok
