Jump to Recipe This Banana Bread with Brown Sugar Streusel topping is quick and easy, and a rich super moist banana bread! The streusel topping for this recipe only takes an extra minute or two to make, and adds a delightfully crunchy, sweet layer of flavor! This easy to make super moist banana bread is made even better with the cinnamon sweet brown sugar streusel topping! Banana Bread with Brown Sugar Streusel Recipe This recipe is the favorite of both my son and daughter, while my husband prefers the moist banana bread recipe that he grew up enjoying! How To Make Streusel-Topped Banana Bread Start out with making the streusel, then set it aside to chill in the refrigerator while preheating the oven and mixing the banana bread. This will help to keep your lovely streusel topping in place without melting into a crispy caramelized layer. Make the Brown Sugar Streusel Topping To make the brown sugar streusel topping combine flour, light brown sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt if you are using unsalted butter. Cut the butter in using a pastry cutter or food processor, or a pair of butter knives using a criss-cross motion to cut the butter. Continue until you have a pea-sized course crumble, being careful not to mix the streusel into a dough. Make the Banana Bread Batter To make this perfectly sweet and moist banana bread, start by preheating your oven to 350ºF ( 175ºC ) and lightly butter or grease your 9 x 5 loaf pan. Then follow these steps for my one-bowl method for the quick bread. In a large mixing bowl, or the bowl of your stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar.Add the browned bananas and mash into the creamed mixture until the banana is in small chunks.Stir in the beaten eggs and combine thoroughly with the banana mixture, then add the vanilla, baking soda, and salt. Stir to combine. Bake the Banana Bread Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake at 350ºF (175ºC) for 60 - 65 minutes. Or until the top is a golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. *I usually top the baking banana bread loaf with streusel at the halfway point in cooking time, after the first 30 minutes. You can add it at the very beginning, but my best results are with waiting. When done, allow the banana bread to cool while still in the loaf pan for about 10 minutes before removing and transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
