"A pawpaw is not a papaya, but a wild fruit that grows on trees in the mid-west. It is the Ohio State Native Fruit and sometimes called an Indiana banana. After finding pawpaws in our neighbors woods, I started the ultimate search for the perfect pawpaw recipe. We found pawpaw pie to be a bit bitter so we tried bread instead. This is an adaptation of a banana bread recipe. Enjoy."

This was a bit sweet, but still good. the combination of banana, papaya, and walnuts is a great combo. It was easy to make and it is still a keeper. Made for new Zaar tag.
