Vintage Banana Bread with Crumble Topping
20 mins prepServes 10
A classic banana bread recipe from a vintage cookbook, elevated with a delicious crumble topping. The recipe provides instructions for both the moist banana bread and the sweet, buttery crumble.
Preheat oven to 350°F. To make the banana bread, whisk the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, butter, beaten eggs, and mashed overripe bananas. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing until just incorporated. In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the crumble topping (all-purpose flour, brown sugar, softened salted butter, ground cinnamon). Use your fingers to mix in the butter until a crumbly texture forms. Pour the banana bread batter into a loaf pan, then evenly sprinkle the crumble topping over the batter. Bake for 1 hour, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
