This cinnamon sugar topped banana bread is so deliciously moist and fluffy that it may be hard to store it after enjoying a few slices. You can keep this banana bread in the fridge for a week or so, it will still be moist, fluffy and delicious. If you can manage to store a part of this banana bread for a later day, I will applaud you for that.
