To make these Banana Snickerdoodle Bars, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 ripe banana, mashed

- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 egg

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the mashed banana, egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined. Gradually add in the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top with a spatula. In a small bowl, mix together 1 tbsp granulated sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top of the batter.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing and slicing into bars.
