Spar Raisin Banana Bread

Spar's Bananenbrood Rozijnen bridges the Dutch and British baking traditions — a moist, dense banana loaf enriched with plump raisins, closer to the British banana bread style than the traditional Dutch bananenkoek (banana cake), and ideal as a breakfast slice or afternoon treat.

Ingredients

Wheat flour, ripe bananas (min. 30%), raisins (10%), butter, sugar, eggs, buttermilk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, baking soda, salt. Contains gluten, milk, eggs, sulphites (raisins).

Serving

Excellent sliced and eaten as-is, or lightly toasted and spread with salted butter. The raisins add bursts of sweetness throughout the loaf that complement the banana without overpowering it. Works well with cream cheese as an alternative to butter.

Storage

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days; refrigerate for up to 5 days. Freezes well in individual slices for up to 2 months — toast directly from frozen for a quick breakfast.
