Hey Y’all, this is Joanna from Everyday Made Fresh, and I am thrilled to be a recipe contributor here at Oh My! Creative. Today I’m sharing one of our favorite recipes, Banana Pumpkin Bread with Cinnamon Swirl.
I am so glad that fall is officially here, and Halloween is just a few weeks away. I can now make everything pumpkin related and my family won’t complain about it. I’m very guilty about craving pumpkin muffins and pumpkin spice coffee in June. I suppose my reason is that since we live in Florida, we start the heat wave in April that most people don’t experience until July, and by June I’m over it!

I kicked off October with quite a few pumpkin recipes over on Everyday Made Fresh and thought why not bring it over to Oh My! Creative for my first post.
One of my daughter’s favorite pumpkin recipes just so happens to be this Banana Pumpkin Bread with Cinnamon Swirl. It should also be noted that I bake egg free because my youngest daughter has eleven food allergies, which includes egg. However, I always note in my recipes the number of eggs to use so that you can use eggs if you would like.
Muffin Ingredients!
2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup brown sugar
4 tablespoons butter, room temp.
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds + 6 tablespoons water, mix and set aside {do this step first}
2 large ripe bananas, mashed
1/4 cup pumpkin puree
1/3 cup plain greek yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cinnamon Swirl
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Glaze
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and grease your loaf pan.
2. Mix together your flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl and set aside.
3. In a large bowl cream your butter and brown sugar together until creamy. Add the flax “eggs”, mix until blended.
4. Stir in the mashed banana, yogurt, pumpkin, and vanilla.
5. Start adding your dry ingredients into your wet, small amounts at a time. The mix will be thick and sticky.
6. Spoon half of your batter into your loaf pan and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Spoon the rest of your batter on top and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a wooden skewer comes out clean.
7. Remove from oven and allow to cool on a wire rack.
8. Once cooled, stir together your glaze and drizzle over the top.
