I shared it warm with my mother, my aunt, and my fiance. Perfect with a little creme fraiche spread on it. Thank you for sharing this recipe!!

I had just a cup of chocolate chips on hand and a little bit of candied ginger so was inspired to make your banana bread instead of my go to Gourmet banana cake with coconut frosting. It's in the oven and if it tastes half as good as it smells we're in for a delicious treat. Thanks! Sue

You'll want to use the same oven temperature, and hmmm, I can't remember exactly how long they took to bake, but I would start checking around 20 minutes? When they're done, they should be golden brown on top, and if you stick a toothpick in the center, it should come out clean…

I loved your book, and am now loving your blog. After reading your book, my first thought was I have to make this banana bread!! But I was wondering, could you or another reader tell me if I wanted to make small loaves for gifts, what would be the temperature and the baking time? I think this would make a good friend/coworker Christmas gift. Thanks!! Mandy in Alabama
