BLUEBERRY, COCONUT BANANA BREAD

Ingredients

• 250g Perfection Raspberries
• 200g butter, chopped
• 100ml sunflower oil
• 400g (45% cocoa) dark chocolate, chopped
• ¼ cup (30g) cocoa powder
• 11/2 cups (335g) caster sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup (250ml) buttermilk
• 11/2 cups (225g) plain flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• Extra Perfection Raspberries, double cream, to serve

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C no fan (see tip). Grease and line base and sides of a 20cm x 30cm lamington pan.
2. Combine butter, oil and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat. Stir with a metal spoon until melted and smooth. Transfer to a mixing bowl, whisk in the cocoa while the mixture is warm. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes. Stir in the sugar then eggs, one at a time, mixing well between each addition.
3. Stir in the buttermilk. Sift the flour and baking powder together over the mix then gently fold to combine. Pour the brownie mix into prepared pan. Top with raspberries, gently pressing them into brownie mix. Bake 45-50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre has moist crumbs clinging.
4. Allow to cool in the pan completely before cutting into pieces. Serve with extra raspberries and cream.

Tip: Keep brownie in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Remove 1 hour before serving or microwave on Medium/50% for 10-15 seconds per piece.
