The addition of the pudding mix is what makes this special, it bakes out moist and rises high every time, if desired you could add a 1/4 cup grated coconut to the batter and the spices may be adjusted to taste - you may also bake this in small mini loaf pans and reduce the baking time slightly - for greasing pan see my Pan Release, Professional Pan Coating (Better Than Pam Spray!)
