Once again, I will let you in on my deadly secret: I’m not a big breakfast fan. Brunch, now that’s a different ball game. My body can’t fathom waking up and eat first thing. But I’ve learned I can’t really depend on that forever – so I really enjoy recipes I can make ahead of time and have to grab for a quick bite in the morning. And this Banana Bread is one for the exception to the rule.

Another fun fact for ya: I was never a banana/banana bread fan as a kid. YEP – went there. What changed – I still don’t exactly know. But maybe it’s that I’m not a plain Jane banana bread lover – I tend to have to dress it up, whether that be with butter, cream cheese (Ohhh, the amount of cream cheese that went on those banana bread slices as a kid), or hazelnut spread (This being a new one – indulgent, but incredibly good – try it!).

I went a little outward with this one – being that I have an odd love for anything cinnamon sugar when it comes to breakfast foods. And best of all, the chocolate chips, too – c’mon now. This ONE BOWL brown sugar cinnamon streusel chocolate chip banana bread recipe will be the highlight of your morning, I PROMISE you that.

4. Then begin by mixing together the Streusel - sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle over the top of the loaf.
5. Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour - use a toothpick at the center of the loaf to make sure it comes off clean.
6. Serve fresh out of the oven with butter. As leftovers, serve toasted with butter for an extra crispy delight for breakfast!
