Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan; set aside. In a medium bowl, sift or whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together mashed banana, melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- For the cinnamon sugar topping, stir together the 2 tablespoons sugar and ½ teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the batter.
- Bake until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50-60 minutes. If the top starts to get too dark before the inside is done, tent the loaf loosely with foil. Do not overbake (my bread is usually done in about 50 minutes).
- Remove from the oven, unmold from the pan, and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Notes
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own buttermilk substitute at home with regular milk and either lemon juice or white vinegar. To do so, place either ¾ teaspoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice or ¾ teaspoon of white vinegar into a measuring cup. Add enough regular milk to equal ¼ cup. Give it a stir, let it sit for about 5 minutes, and then use it in the recipe.
