Jamaican fruit loaf

Lucian Wischik. 10 steps

85g margarine		cream	Pour in greased and lined 8x4 inch loaf tin, bake 1 hour or until well-risen and firm
110g brown sugar
30ml clear honey		stir in
2 eggs	beat	mix in well
225g banana	peeled, mashed
225g self-raising flour	sift	fold in
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
225g raisins
15ml clear honey			Glaze, cool

Lucian says this dish is more sophisticated if the raisins are omitted. Personally, I am not sure if banana bread can be sophisticated at all.

It looks nicer during cooking if you use softened butter instead of margarine.
