      Grapefruits look and taste very different from grapes, but they share the same name. Why? Because grapefruits grow in bunches—the same way grapes do!

      firstcut the grapefruit

      Preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Cut the grapefruits in half crosswise and use a small serrated knife to loosen or separate the segments.

      Arrange the grapefruit halves, cut sides up, on the prepared sheet. Sprinkle each half with 1 tablespoon of the brown sugar. Have an adult help you place the grapefruit halves in the broiler about 4 inches (10 cm) from the heat source. Broil until the sugar has melted and is bubbling, 2–3 minutes.

      You’re better off using really ripe, even brown-speckled bananas for this big loaf. The riper the bananas, the more flavorful and moist the bread will be.

      first mix the ingredients

      Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Butter and flour a 5-by-9-inch (13-by-23-cm) loaf pan. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, mash the bananas well with a fork. Add the butter, eggs, yogurt, and vanilla. Stir until blended. Gradually add the flour mixture, stirring gently just until mixed. Stir in the nuts, if using. Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan.

      thenbake the bread

      Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. If the top begins to brown too much during baking, cover loosely with aluminum foil. Let the pan cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then turn the bread out on the rack, turn right side up, and let cool completely.

      Cut the bread into slices and serve at room temperature.

      The origin of the name “monkey bread” is uncertain. One theory is, since most kids like to enjoy it ball by stickyball, it evokes what your moms might call “eating like a monkey.”
