Good Monday afternoon everyone! I rarely post during the middle of the day, but here I am putting this before my shower. I’m a mess!
I’ve had black bananas staring at me in the kitchen for over a week now and I finally put them to good use this morning.I’ve seen some beautiful biscotti on so many blogs lately and since I’ve never made my own, I decided to give it a shot.Since I practically have a year supply’s worth of cinnamon chips I knew I’d be adding them to the banana bread dough.Let me tell you, it is a perfect match.I know we’ve talked about this before, but do try to get your hands a bag of cinnamon chips.They are great in so many baked goods!
Take a peek and Enjoy!!

I have gobs of cinnamon chips too…and white chocolate. This is the perfect recipe for me! Thanks!!
What a great combo with the cannamon chips and banana! They look really good!
those look sooo yummy! the white chocolate topping is what really got me!
Yours are much more fancy-schmancy than mine are, and I just use a cake mix. However, that being said….I’d sit and devour each and every one of these. I can practically smell them from here! Mmmm!
They look so pretty. I’m totally craving one with my coffee this morning!
I was just asking myself last night if I had room to throw more black bananas in the freezer. I just might have to make these tonight. I’ve only made them once before, a long time ago.
Yours look so perfect and yummy!
They look delicious. So good to dip in coffee. I made some a long time ago and need to try to make some again sometime.
I love it! Cinnamon and banana are such an awesome flavor combination! Love the sprinkles!
Yum. These look so good. I the love combination of flavors you used. I still haven’t found the cinnamon chips but I am on the search.
Jenny, Jenny! What I would give for a mug of white hot chocolate and a plate of these delectable biscotti! I love cookies like these for big clear cookie jars! They are gorgeous girl! (My mouth is watering! I also just saw a chocolate bar with bacon in it on the foodnet . . . okay now someone is just going above and beyond!)
Jenny.
Brilliant.
And Beautiful.
I’ve never had those cinnamon chips but, by golly, I’m determined to get them after seeing your MANY uses for them. Utterly impressive. Keep up the fabu cooking!
I really do need to use those bananas in my fridge.
Yummy!
Do you know where we can order these chips online? I live in AZ too….
What a great idea! I do enjoy coffee with banana bread, so I know it would be perfect in biscotti form. Yum!
Are you sure you’ve never baked biscotti before? Those are pretty perfect, in my opinion.
Great minds think alike. I also just made some banana biscotti though mine are nowhere as pretty as yours!
I also received the pie cutters today and they’re adorable. We’re going apple picking this weekend so I’m sure some pies will be made shortly! Thanks 🙂
This looks so good. I have always wanted to make my own. I am a huge coffee person so I think they pair just perfect together. I will have to try tehse out soon.
I love the new layout. I really want a new one for my blog. As you see I changed it but nope I am still not happy, lol. I want something more me and more inviing ahh but I am so bad in things like this :(..

Wow- this sounds amazing and looks even better. You sure do give those cinnamon chips a workout- they must be wonderful! I have some near rotten bananas as well, now I know what to do with them! Thanks, Jenny!
I love that you dipped them in white chocolate. It really dresses them up!
Biscotti! Yumm. Yours definitely look great! Love the decorations and the flowers in the background – beautiful!
You can find cinnamon chips at Wal-mart alongside the other baking chips.
They look yummy! Love the nonpareils!
Yes, I’ve heard the Cinnamon chips speech! And you’ve certainly piqued my interest on them, I plan to pick up some bags next time I’m home. I hear you on this being the perfect match! I haven’t had the chips before but cinnamon is a no-brainer with banana. They look great!
I just love biscotti. They are great “dunkers”. I’ll have to give banana a try. As a matter of fact, I have browned bananas staring me in the face!!!
Oh my! Those sound fantastic! I just happen to have a half bag of cinnamon chips I’ve been wondering what to do with.
Great idea 🙂
I’m on the next plane! Jenny, these are just incredible.
These look great! I’ve never considered making biscotti before, but I just now might.
By the way, I found Cinnamon Chips at my Fry’s in Prescott Valley! They had a huge holiday baking display and there they were. Maybe Fry’s will carry them as a holiday thing? I’d be glad to send you some, if you still can’t get them in the Valley. 🙂
Yum! Such gorgeous pictures!
Banana bread is one of my favorite things, I recently made the TWD biscotti for the first time and loved it AND I have a bag of the cinnamon chips (always find them at my grocery store) and am going to have to make these! They look SO good!
Darn it, I missed your last giveaway! You should have a way to subscribe by email on your blog! 😉
Wow-I thought I was the only one who hasn’t tried making biscotti…well…now maybe I am! Jenny these look SOOO good….now the million dollar question..where can I hide some of the bananas I bought over the weekend so I can try these???? They look wonderful!!!
Wow! The look and sound delicious!
aww man, i was totally thinking of doing something like this with the rest of my chips, but you beat me to it!! yum 🙂
Yum! I love biscotti, and since the only biscotti I’ve ever tasted has been banana chocolate chip, I have a special place in my heart (and tummy) for that type of flavor combination in biscotti. I love the way they look with white chocolate and sprinkles.
These are definitely good and super easy to make. We love those here as well and looks like they turned out perfectly.
Okay so now I really need to see if my market sells the cinnamon chips!
Those are gorgeous! Yet another recipe that I will have to try soon. Thanks again Jenny!!
