Banana Bread with Passion Fruit Butter

June 21, 2011 By Delia

Banana bread is a delicious snack or dessert. I usually like the ones with nuts, until I found an interesting alternative. Passion fruit butter is a creamy spread that melts in your mouth. This recipe is perfect for tropical countries because you have access to a wide array of sweet bananas and of course delicious passion fruit.

 

Serves 6

Ingredients:

1 2/3 cups plain flour, sifted

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/3 cup caster sugar

1/3 firmly packed cup brown sugar

2 eggs, beaten

1 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 ripe bananas, mashed

For the passion fruit butter:

50g cream cheese

175g butter, salted

1/4 cup icing sugar, sifted

1/4 cup fresh passion fruit pulp

 

Preheat the oven at 160C and then grease a 10x20cm baking pan with melted butter.

Combine the baking powder, flour, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and bananas in a bowl. Mix well and then place it into the greased pan. Bake the bread for 30-40 minutes. Insert a toothpick into the bread to test doneness. It must come out clean. Let it cool for 5 minutes before removing it from the pan. Let it cool completely.

Place the cream cheese, butter, sugar and passion fruit pulp in a food processor or blender. Process it until smooth. Transfer it to a sealed container and refrigerate until set. Slice the bread and serve it with the passion fruit butter.
