Ingredients
- 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 large very ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 medium apples, cubed
- ¾ cup chopped walnuts (Optional)
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease two 7×3-inch loaf pans.
- Make the bread: Whisk flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
- Beat sugar and melted butter in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Mix in eggs, one at a time, followed by yogurt and vanilla. Gradually stir in flour mixture just until incorporated.
- Fold in bananas, apples, and walnuts until combined with small chunks of banana still visible in the batter; do not overmix. Pour 1/2 of the batter into each prepared pan.
- Make the topping: Mix brown sugar, white sugar, flour, butter, and cinnamon together in a bowl until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Sprinkle 1/2 of the topping over each loaf. Garnish each loaf with banana and apple slices.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then remove and cover each pan with aluminum foil.
- Return to the oven, and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of each loaf comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool before serving.
