Cinnamon Swirl Banana Bread

Cinnamon Swirl Banana Bread

 


I LOVE Banana Bread.

And since I buy a bunch of bananas at least once a week, I always seem to have a couple of over ripe bananas around.  You know the ones I am talking about...  Too much brown, maybe even starting t split around the top.
