"Use these, I think they're going to spoil." I was handed a batch of bananas: really, really ripe bananas. Was it given to me as incentive to make a dessert? Or was it for a daily protein shake? Let's go with the former, it's a bit more fun. Banana bread is easy to make, and despite not craving it too frequently, it's usually eaten with almost no second-thought. When I was handed the bananas I was also staring at a bottle of rum sitting in the cupboard, thinking about rum cake. Taking the thought a bit further, I varied things up to make this Buttered Rum Banana Bread. With the freshly baked bread soaking up the sweetened buttered rum, what wasn't to love?
