- Fold in the chopped macadamia nuts and raspberries, being careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice and serve the banana, raspberry, and macadamia bread as a delicious snack or breakfast treat.
Tips:
- Ensure your bananas are very ripe for the best natural sweetness and moisture.
- If you don’t have buttermilk, you can substitute with regular milk mixed with a teaspoon of lemon juice or vinegar; let it sit for a few minutes to curdle.
- Gently fold in the raspberries to prevent them from breaking up too much and turning the batter pink.
- Toasting the macadamia nuts beforehand can bring out their flavor even more.
- Use a toothpick to check doneness; it should come out clean or with just a few crumbs when the bread is ready.
