Today I made banana bread and threw in a handful of super ripe raspberries.

Oh man was it good.

That got me thinking: what other things would be good in banana bread? I've done walnuts, blueberries, lemon zest, and chocolate chips, and I've heard about throwing in dried apricot. What about dried mango? Or pineapple, either canned or dried?

The Banana Bread Puzzle

Ok folks this is probably a real simple puzzle for you.  Today I made two loaves of banana bread based on RL Barenbaum's bread bible.  Basically the recipe is the basic white loaf plus a cup of milk and 2 ripe bananas.  So the loaves are fine but there is no taste of banana in them.  Please note that this is banana bread and not banana cake as Floyd has shared with us with baking powder and baking soda.
