I want to make a case for fancy breakfasts. It’s easy to skip breakfast or do something quick and easy, like toast or yogurt. But the days when I take the time to make something special, like French Toast or pancakes or… cinnamon rolls? Those days always go so much better! Start the day with a party and the party will continue. This recipe is a great way to do that.

Banana Bread Cinnamon Rolls

What do you get when you combine banana bread with cinnamon rolls? These incredible Banana Bread Cinnamon Rolls! A cinnamon roll and banana bread in one, how could these not be good? Then when they are slathered generously with cream cheese frosting and finished off with toasted nuts, all I can say is wow, yum! This is breakfast done right.

I prefer to eat these treats right out of the oven, just seconds after I slather on the cream cheese frosting. I love melty frosting on a warm, fresh cinnamon roll. Some people might choose to spread the frosting after the rolls have cooled, so that the frosting stays thick. There’s no wrong way to enjoy these cinnamon rolls—but I do think that they pair best with a big glass of milk!

Other Brunch Treats to Try

Brunch is the best opportunity to eat treats and celebrate. What are we celebrating? Anything we want—or nothing at all! Just whip up some of your favorite breakfast foods, some delicious treats, and a friend or two to enjoy them with. If you don’t have a brunch habit, it might be time to create a tradition. Sunday brunch with family. Special brunches for holidays. Birthday brunches! There’s no bad time to brunch, in my opinion. Here are some of my best brunch recipes:
