Banana and Raspberry Bread

Hello Dear Reader,

It was lovely Joolz from Simply Joolz that put me onto the idea for this recipe. She had made it with blueberries but as I didn't have any in the house, but did have some frozen raspberries to use up, I used those instead. I have also fiddled with the original recipe to make it my own.

When I arrived home after our week away at Bunya Mountains there was a bunch of bananas looking a little worse for wear in the fruit bowl, I used some up for our breakfast fruit salad and 3 went into this great little recipe.

I baked this cake mixture in a little loaf tin, it made two sweet little loaves, but it makes one normal size loaf.

Ingredients for Banana and Raspberry Bread, clockwise from top right-2 tablespoons maple syrup, 2 tablespoons softened butter, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1 egg, 3 bananas, mashed, 1 cup frozen raspberries, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 1/4 cups of plain flour, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1teaspoon vanilla essence

Add the flour to a bowl and whisk in the salt and baking paper, set aside until needed

In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the softened butter and brown sugar, cream for about 10 minutes or until light in colour

Now add the mashed bananas, egg and maple syrup

And mix until combined

Add the plain flour mixture and mix in on low speed 

Until just incorporated

Remove mixing bowl from stand mixer

And very gently mix through the frozen raspberries

Until just combined, use a light hand and do not over mix

Pour mixture into prepared tin of choice and bake at 180 C until cooked through

Sweet and delicious 

As you can see I haven't given a baking time, because I used the little tins they only took about 20 minutes to bake all the way through, so the cooking time will depend on what size tin you use. 

Make it today and it you do don't forget to send in a photo of your Banana and Raspberry bread and I'll add it to the"Did you make it? Show us" page on my blog.

Have a lovely day,
💗Fi
