AmyI found this delightful recipe in the November issue of Bon Appetit. The name of the recipe grabbed my attention. I HAD to make this bread. I began to read the ingredients and realized that it is something of a variation of the dreaded fruit cake. However, this is done nice and proper. Spicy and aromatic. Cranberry compote and creme fraiche as toppings. This would make for a light Christmas breakfast or perhaps switch out the creme fraiche for a scoop of vanilla ice cream for both an u usual and strangely traditional Christmas dessert. The process looks daunting but I can assure you that you will quickly find your groove in the kitchen. Make the bread a day ahead and the compote takes just a few minutes to prepare. Adult it up a little with some brandy if you like your dessert somewhat boozy.

I'm going to make banana bread." Usually more days pass by, and soon these bananas are straight black. Now according to Alton Brown, that's when the bananas are the sweetest. However, I think Matt just gets sick of looking at rotting bananas in our fruit bowl, and he throws them out. Then we start the whole process over the following week when I buy more bananas. Lol! BUT....this morning, I made Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips. 🤣 I like to make mine then toast a slice and spread peanut butter or nutella over it. Give it a try & Merry Christmas everybody!! Love, 99 Click below for recipe Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips Georgia So.. I decided to make a loaf of bread.. Now I've made bread before and it's come out fine.. You know.. Bread like.
