Passionfruit and raspberry banana bread FAQ:

What is the baking time for the Passionfruit and Raspberry Banana Bread?

Bake the banana bread in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 60-70 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.

How do I know when the banana bread is done?

The banana bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few dry crumbs. If there's wet batter, additional baking time may be needed.

Can I substitute self-raising flour for all-purpose flour?

Yes, you can use all-purpose flour instead of self-raising flour. However, you'll need to add about 1-2 teaspoons of baking powder to achieve similar leavening.

How should I store leftover banana bread?

Store leftover banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months.

What if I don't have buttermilk?

If you don't have buttermilk, you can substitute it by mixing 1/2 cup of milk with 1/2 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice. Let it sit for about 5 minutes before using.

Tips:

- Use ripe bananas for a sweeter and more flavorful bread.

- Gently fold in the raspberries to avoid breaking them and distributing the juices unevenly.

- Ensure the butter is at room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother batter.

- Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the bread; it should come out clean or with a few dry crumbs.

- Let the bread cool completely before slicing to prevent it from crumbling.
