I just love a good loaf..and I am a big fan of cinnamon sugar anything! 😉 So this banana cinnamon swirl loaf had me smiling from ear to ear 🙂 It’s just 3 smart points per slice on both the blue & purple program and 4 smart points on green, and makes 10 nice large slices.. Enjoy!

Can you tell what the cinnamon swirl mix is and who makes it? Thank you.
Hi Tobi, that is just meaning that the cinnamon swirl mix is the sugar and cinnamon listed below it, I added an edit for future confusion
Couple questions. First, is at the beginning of the recipe you mention it’s 3 points for blue but at the end you put it’s 4. Second, you write add in egg whites in the instructions, but the ingredient list only mentions eggs. Third, you put 2tbsp white sugar but in the recipe instructions you wrote 3tbsp.
Hi Alexis, sorry I revised some older recipes (this being one of them ) to cater better to the MyWW programs, so it was just typos on my end, I do apologize, thanks for letting me know, I have updated
No worries. Thank you! Recipe is delicious!
Good to hear 🙂
Hi – made this for the first time and wonder if one important step is missing in the recipe. #5 days to add half the batter, sprinkle sugar/cinnamon mix evenly over batter, and add remaining batter. The loaf cooked okay, but basically in 2 parts. Should there not be a little note to run a knife through the batter to incorporate the swirl mix? Thanks always for your recipes.
Hi Deb, when I make it I don’t run a knife through it and it bakes ok for me, I can add it though but as you see in my pictures it wasn’t necessary
Is this AP FLOUR OR SR? Thank you
Hi Terry I always use all-purpose unless I am making the two ingredient dough
