Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Spray a 9-inch x 5-inch loaf pan with baking spray or grease with butter, then line with parchment paper. Spray the parchment paper with baking spray or grease with butter.

In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg.

In another bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.

To mashed banana, add eggs, oil, molasses and sugar. Whisk together to combine.

Slowly add the flour mixture to the banana mixture, stirring to combine. Don't overmix, but don't leave any dry flour behind.

Pour loaf mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 45 to 53 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.

Once baked, allow the banana gingerbread to cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then remove from the pan and cool fully on a cooling rack.

Once the banana gingerbread is cool, add icing sugar to a bowl and slowly whisk in orange juice until smooth.

Drizzle the glaze over the banana gingerbread and garnish with orange zest and candied ginger if desired.

Slice and serve. Enjoy!
