Every year during the holidays I give the gift of baked goods to my friends, co-workers and neighbors. In each gift box I always include several mini loafs and every year I try to come up with something a little different. I have several jars of brandied figs that I made so I thought I would take my favorite banana bread recipe and tweak it to use the brandied figs. I added walnuts (they can be omitted if you have a nut allergy) and spices and the result is a delicious, moist figgy, nutty loaf. If you do not want to use brandied figs poached figs will be fine.
