Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350F degrees.
Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl mix together the banana and eggs until well blended.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well blended. Stir in the chopped dates and apricot halves.
Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and stir just until blended.
Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake until a toothipick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.
Remove from the oven and place the pan on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes then remove the loaf of bread from the pan and place it directly on the wire rack to cool completely.
Recipe Notes
Other additions (instead of dates and apricots) I want to try:
