Snickerdoodle cookies are one of my most favorite desserts. So, when I stumbled upon a recipe for snickerdoodle bread, I knew I had to give it a try!
I merged that recipe with some elements from my best banana bread recipe and baked up something that tastes a bit like heaven! Truly, with a heavy pat of butter, this bread is a pastry treat your whole family will be smitten with!
