I don't think most people do, but it is a tradition in our family. I saw a banana bread recipe this morning using almond flour. It looks like a quick recipe. I think I am going to make that. There is a recipe I made last year, that I really liked it was for an apple chai bread with a cream cheese swirl in it. I will probably make that for Christmas. I am not going to be able to get to it for Tgiving. It takes a lot of ingredients and a lot of time, but it really is worth it. It was probably the best bread of its type I had ever made.

Being single and just eating for myself, I don’t do anything fancy.

@snowy22315 — I make a cheater’s Thanksgiving meal…buy turkey from a BBQ place, boxed stuffing, and canned sugar-free apple pie filling. I’m living large!

Sweet potato bread sounds different, and probably good. I have made and had pumpkin bread several times. That is really good too.

@snowy22315 it is good . Often my mom makes a pumpkin bread from a Libby’s kit. That’s pretty tasty but I like to make things from scratch.

I remember you talking about that apple chai bread, and it sounded good.
Diana makes a lot of banana nut bread this time of year. She made some recently, and it was exceptionally delicious. I’m not sure what she did different.
My late grandmother used to make this delicious orange walnut bread this time of year, and boy, do I miss it. And her. Darn, I certainly miss her.

You can never beat mom's home cooking and I'll only eat her banana nut bread.

Start the tradition! Do you celebrate Kwanza there? Some of the black people in the US celebrate Kwanza, but I think they may also celebrate Christmas. The majority celebrate Christmas of course.

I love nut breads but we don't have them for Thanksgiving. Usually we only have dinner rolls on the table with all the other fixings.

I almost always make a banana bread during this time of year, but we're going to be traveling this year for Thanksgiving to visit family, so I probably won't do any baking until closer to Christmas.
The apple chai bread sounds amazing, I'm going to have to look up the ingredients and recipe.
