Papaya Bread with a Twist image

I was trying to use up some papaya and ripe bananas and found a papaya bread recipe that I could easily modify. I loved the idea of adding ginger to give it a bit of a bite. It turned out amazing and I've had several requests for the recipe already! Enjoy. Serve at room temperature or warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Time 1h30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
4 eggs
1 cup mashed ripe bananas
1 cup mashed ripe papaya
¾ cup raisins
½ cup chopped walnuts
⅓ cup diced crystallized ginger
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon baking powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease two 5x7-inch loaf pans.
  • Combine butter and sugar in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Add eggs; beat until lightly fluffy. Beat in bananas, papaya, raisins, walnuts, and crystallized ginger until batter is smooth.
  • Sift flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, and baking powder together in a separate bowl. Mix gradually into the batter. Pour batter into the prepared pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
