Healthy Banana Nut Bread Recipe

This Banana Nut Bread Recipe uses wholemeal bread flour and wheatgerm. It also uses raisins and has a rich crunchy texture and is delicious with butter and marmalade.

I prefer to make it for afternoon tea rather than breakfast especially if you have guests to entertain. Give it a shot!

You can also play around with the recipe and alternate the raisins with any other dry fruits for example; dates, sultanas.

It is always great fun to experiment and I do that a lot with my recipes until I find the perfect combination that suits my family's taste buds. Yum!
