Tis the season ya’ll – feijoas are back and when you are blessed with a feijoa tree you don’t just get one or two do you? You get ALL the feijoas, so having multiple recipes up your sleeve is never a bad idea. I make this loaf multiple times each year, we love it in all of its sugary glory, but, it works just as well with a stevia natural sweetener. Yay for reduced calories!

Yum this looks so good! I love feijoas. I've got 4 trees that I planted a few years ago, but they're just not quite ripe yet! Can't wait to get into them and try out recipes like this.
