Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9x5 inch (23x13 cm) loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, mash the bananas using a fork until smooth. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey, and eggs. Whisk until well combined.
- Add the mashed bananas to the bowl and stir to incorporate.
- In another bowl, sift together the self-raising flour and baking soda. Add the brown sugar and mix well.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Carefully fold in the raspberries, trying not to squish them too much to keep them whole.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the bread is baking, prepare the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar with a little water or milk until you achieve a smooth, pourable consistency.
- Once the bread is done, allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread if desired.
- Slice and serve this delicious low-fat banana and raspberry bread. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Make sure to use ripe bananas as they provide more natural sweetness and moisture to the bread.
- When folding in the raspberries, do so gently to keep them intact and evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
- To prevent the bread from sticking, line your loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
- Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to ensure clean cuts and to let the flavors meld together.
Congratulations! You've just made a scrumptious low-fat banana and raspberry bread that's both nutritious and satisfying. Whether enjoyed on its own or with a dollop of Greek yogurt on top, this bread is a wonderful way to indulge without the guilt. Share it with friends and family and watch it disappear!
