Instructions

  1. Start by preheating the oven to 350F and line an 8.5x4.5 or 9x5 loaf pan with parchment paper then set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter, mashed banana, pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla until combined.
  3. Add in the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, all-spice, and ground ginger just until the flour mixture disappears.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking loaf pan and bake in the preheated oven for 55-70 minutes. You will know your loaf cake is ready when a wooden skewer or sharp knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. For a glossy loaf you can brush it with some honey as soon as it comes out of the oven.
  6. Let the loaf cake cool down in the loaf pan for 20 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool down fully before slicing into it and enjoying it with a tall glass of cold milk!
