Cinnamon Swirl Banana Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
* 3 large ripe bananas, mashed
* 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 tsp baking powder
* 1/2 tsp baking soda
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 1/4 cup granulated sugar
* 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
* 2 large eggs
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
* Cinnamon Swirl Topping (see below)
Cinnamon Swirl Topping:
* 1/4 cup granulated sugar
* 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
* 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
* 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.
5. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
6. Stir in the chopped walnuts, if using.
7. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
8. Prepare the Cinnamon Swirl Topping by mixing together the sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
9. Add the softened butter to the sugar mixture and mix until a crumbly mixture forms.
10. Spread the Cinnamon Swirl Topping evenly over the batter in the loaf pan.
11. Pour the remaining batter over the topping.
12. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
13. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cook Time: 55-60 minutes
Prep Time: 15 minutes

Variations:
* Add a hint of nutmeg to the Cinnamon Swirl Topping for a unique twist.
* Substitute honey or maple syrup for the granulated sugar for a touch of sweetness.
* Add chocolate chips to the batter for a chocolate-banana bread.
* Use pecans or hazelnuts instead of walnuts for a different nutty flavor.
* Make muffins instead of a loaf by dividing the batter into 12 muffin cups and baking for 20-25 minutes.
