Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350?F (175?C) and grease a loaf pan.
In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas and stir in melted butter.
Add granulated sugar and brown sugar; mix well before adding eggs one at a time.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and cinnamon. Gradually combine with the wet mixture until just mixed.
For the swirl, mix additional brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Layer half the batter in the pan, sprinkle half of the swirl mixture over it, then repeat.
Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool before slicing.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness.

Customize your bread by adding nuts or chocolate chips.
