Banana Plum Bread
Plums add just the right sweetener to a classic banana bread.
Ingredients:
- 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup white sugar
- ½ cup margarine, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 ½ cups mashed ripe bananas
- 1 cup plums, pitted and chopped
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Sift flour, baking powder, and baking soda into a bowl.
- Mash sugar and margarine together in a large bowl until creamy, then beat in eggs. Stir in flour mixture in three batches, alternating with mashed bananas, beating batter briefly after each addition; mix until smooth and well combined. Gently fold in plums and transfer to the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 1 hour.
