The bread was OK, but I have to agree with YungB that it was too dense and heavy, even for a quick bread. It might have turned out better with less papaya. I made some into mini-loaves and some into muffins, and the muffins turned out slightly better and more solid. I didn't care for the strong taste of papaya so I added a dash of nutmeg and 1/8 teaspoon of cloves.
