    Get all the cinnamon roll-y flavors in this quick and easy banana bread with cream cheese glaze!

    Hear me out…

    I love a delicious homemade batch of soft, gooey, cinnamon-y cinnamon rolls. 

    But they can take hours to make. And I love to make them…for the right occasion. 

    I got to thinking…how could I make a faster and easier version of cinnamon rolls…

    Answer: AS BANANA BREAD. 

    It starts with a basic banana bread recipe…then you add in cinnamon chips and white chocolate chips into the batter…then you top the baked banana bread with a cream cheese glaze. 

    And you end up with this magical loaf of bread…
