  • Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9X4X11 in loaf pan and place a piece of parchment paper on the bottom of the pan.
  • Beat together the sugars and butter until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, incorporating well after each addition then add the vanilla extract. Peel and mash bananas. Stir into the butter mixture. Add the flour, nutmeg cinnamon until just combined. Do not over-beat.
  • Pour mixture into pan and bake for 1 hour, 15 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the bread comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.

  1. Really enjoyed making AND serving this recipe as given ~ Very, very nice! I did use very ripe bananas (I wanted all the banana flavor I could get!) & also used blood oranges, which I thought went great with the berries, AND I opted for the mascarpone rather than the plain yogurt! OUTSTANDING COMBO OF FLAVORS, & the recipe is definitely a keeper! Thanks for sharing it! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my group mates in the Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #30]
