Ingredients & Preparation:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and ready a 9×5-inch loaf pan by greasing and flouring it.

Start with a mix of mashed bananas, sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract in a large bowl, blending them for a harmonious base.

Whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and a melody of spices—cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice in another bowl, introducing the soul of Jamaican flavor.

Combine the dry ingredients with the banana mixture, stirring to just blend, and fold in optional chopped nuts and dark rum for an authentic taste.

Bake the harmonious blend for about an hour, until it passes the toothpick test, then cool before slicing into the moist, flavorful bread.
