Recipe: Cinnamon Spiced Banana Bread
Ingredients:
* 2 large ripe bananas, mashed
* 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
* 1 tsp baking soda
* 1 tsp ground cinnamon
* 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
* 1/4 tsp ground ginger
* 1/2 cup (110g) unsalted butter, softened
* 3/4 cup (170g) granulated sugar
* 2 large eggs
* 1/2 cup (120ml) plain yogurt
* 1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* 1/4 cup (30g) chopped walnuts (optional)
* Confectioners' sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
3. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.
5. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
6. Stir in the yogurt, milk, and walnuts (if using).
7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
8. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
9. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
10. Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.

Variations:
* Walnut-Free: Omit the chopped walnuts for a lighter texture.
* Chocolate Chips: Add 1/2 cup (60g) of dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips for an indulgent twist.
* Pecan Praline: Substitute chopped pecans for the walnuts and add 1/4 cup (15g) of brown sugar to the batter.
* Coffee Cake Style: Add 1/4 cup (60g) of cinnamon-sugar mixture (a mix of granulated sugar and cinnamon) on top of the batter before baking.
* Glazed: Drizzle the cooled bread with a simple glaze made by whisking together 1/4 cup (60g) of powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon of milk, and 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
