This Snickerdoodle Banana Bread is the perfect blend of classic banana bread and the warm, cozy flavors of snickerdoodle cookies.

Ingredients
- Preheat. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line your loaf pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Combine Dry Ingredients. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugar. In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer (or your favorite electric mixer) to cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Mix Wet Ingredients. Add the eggs, mashed bananas, milk, and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until fully combined.
- Incorporate Dry Ingredients. Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour and Spread. Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Add the Topping. Sprinkle a generous layer of cinnamon-sugar over the top to create that signature snickerdoodle crust.
- Bake. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Slice. Let the bread cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a rack. Once cool, slice and enjoy!
