But the banana bread has to be unstoppable. Here are four tips for unstoppable banana bread.
Start with very ripe bananas. Squishy ripe bananas have two to three times the flavor of ripe bananas. We let our leftover bananas get black and then freeze them.
Add a teaspoon of banana flavor. It doesn’t matter how ripe the bananas are, banana flavor will make your bread or muffins a little better. We put banana flavor in our mixes.
Add cinnamon chips. Get a burst of sweet cinnamon in every bite. Cinnamon chips make an amazing difference.
Refrigerate your bread. Wrap your bread and refrigerate it overnight. After chilling, the banana bread is easier to cut into nice, uniform slices, it holds together better, and just plain tastes better.
This is Banana Bread French Toast with Vanilla Buttermilk Syrup and Orange Cloud Whipped Cream. It's a delightful melding of flavors—bananas and cinnamon, vanilla cream buttermilk syrup, and orange. The banana bread is loaded with cinnamon chips. The syrup has a butterscotch-caramel flavor with an addition of vanilla that tones the flavors down a bit and brings the butterscotch to the forefront. It’s topped with an orange whipped cream that adds the perfect touch. It’s super easy to make.

This the flavor of my youth. After the Friday night ball games, we would drive up and down the boulevard in Stevie's Ford, spotting all the pretty girls. If we knew them and were brave enough, we would honk or wave. After the requisite number of trips up and down the boulevard, we would pull into the drive-in where another pretty girl would take our order.
I was shy. I never got a date doing that but I had lots of root beer floats. And it was a fun time with our buddies.
This is a fun flavor. Use your imagination and you'll have a lot of fun with it. These ideas will get you started.
