Streusel Topped Banana Bread

So we all tend to go to making banana bread when you have those over ripe bananas laying around, but streusel topped banana bread would be even better, right? So I decided to give it a shot.
I decided to try out a new recipe for the bread. Now, I didn’t care for it as much as my regular recipe but my husband loved it. I would have even preferred my cake mix banana bread. So, if you don’t want to venture out with a new bread, you can always just add the streusel to the top of your favorite banana bread recipe. The streusel itself was perfect. It would also work well to top a dozen muffins with too!
