Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas and add melted butter, granulated sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla. Stir until creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to the wet mixture, stirring gently.
- Combine ground cinnamon and brown sugar in a small bowl for the swirl.
- Spoon half of the banana batter into the prepared loaf pan, add half the cinnamon-sugar mixture, and repeat with remaining batter and swirl.
- Gently swirl the batter with a knife to create a marbled effect.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Avoid over-mixing to ensure a light, tender loaf. Use ripe bananas for the best flavor, and consider drizzling with vanilla icing for added sweetness.
