Banana Ginger Squares

1 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 bananas, mashed
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup chopped candied ginger
3/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Well, I busted out Mr. Hyam's ol' Thai cookbook this afternoon, after I had finished my revisions to my week 3, Module 1 CASB assignment....

Regardless, I was thinking I should use up some of those bananas we had. Yes, banana bread would be a great idea, but how else can you combine bananas, ginger and coconut?

Mummy and I had some warm Banana Ginger Squares while we watched some episodes of season 4 of Homicide. Good stuff. Really, I should have added a little pad of butter to it, so it could melt and find it's way into all the nooks and crannies of the bread....  Indeed, another option I was considering was adding chocolate chips to the batter before it goes into the oven.

Here's the whole pan, at a 3/4 view:


...and now a side view. You can see the banana see clearly mixed in. Tough to see the ginger, but believe me, it's in there:






Overall, a quick and easy bread to make. My tastebuds give it a 7 out of 10.
