Raspberry Banana Bread

Banana bread is one of those recipes everyone needs in their recipe collection.  If you ever have ripe bananas, this is a great go-to recipe. This Raspberry Banana Bread is super moist and delicious.  The addition of raspberries throughout the bread gives it a little tang' and balances the sweetness perfectly. Trick to having raspberry pieces appear throughout the banana bread is to break the raspberries into smaller pieces so they are not too heavy and won't sink towards the bottom of the bread,  Also, if you pop a few raspberries at the top and push it in slightly before baking, they tend to stay towards the top of the banana bread. This recipe is so easy to make and everyone will enjoy it.  It's great for breakfast, afternoon tea or just a snack throughout the day. Hope you get a chance to try this recipe soon.  Start ripening those bananas. Happy Baking xo Raspberry Banana Bread Ingredients · 2 cups self-raising flour · 1 teaspoon baking p...
