Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Loved adding the tahini and sesame oil for an additional flavor, I'm always down to explore another banana bread variation. The bread pan required was unfortunately too small for my batter and I should have sent one size up as the batter rose above and over the rim. I also did have to bake it for longer than called to address the middle section still being raw at the one hour mark. Despite that, the results are good and I would try it again in a bigger pan size.

    Really liked the extra depth the sesame brings. Needed extra time in the oven.

    Eh. Texture was nice, but in contrast to anothersarah I thought it was too sesame-forward. I tend to like my banana breads to focus on banana, and this one didn’t.

    Good but did not get a lot of sesame flavor once baked. Tasted like pretty standard banana bread imo.

    I am a sucker for anything sesame so naturally I had to give this one a try, and it did not disappoint. Using toasted sesame oil in baking is a game changer!
