Secret Recipe Club - Vegan Cinnamon Swirl Bread




Secret Recipe Club time around here. This month I had the pleasure of being assigned Julies Eats and Treats blog. Julie has a bunch of really awesome recipes on her blog with some great and delicious looking photos. I had a tough time choosing between recipes but I had a bowl full of ripe bananas that needed using so when I came across this Cinnamon Swirl Banana Bread I was sold. But check out these lemony treats that I was thinking about making - Lemon Drop Cupcakes and Lemonies. Don't they look good?



The recipe was easy to make vegan and was very delicious. The only thing I found was that there was too much cinnamon sugar on top of the banana bread that just ended up falling off, so I adjusted the measurements a bit.

Thanks Julie for the yummy recipe!
