BBQ Banana Fruit Bread

A recipe by Country Women's Association member from Yungaburra, QLD edited to my tastes and pantry and cooked in the BBQ.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups mixed dried fruits (I used cranberries, and sunshine mix)
• 1 handful of shredded coconut
• 1 handfull of goji berries
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda
• 110 grams butter
• 2 cups boiling water
• 3 ripe bananas
• 1/2 cup mixed nuts like cashews and almonds
• 2 eggs
• 2 cups self raising flour
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Method:

Place fruit and coconut in a bowl with sugar, bi carb and butter. Add boiling water, mix together and leave cool for 10 minutes.

Turn BBQ on to 170 degrees celcuis.

Add mashed bananas and any nuts you have, then mix in eggs and sifted flour and spice.

Place in 2 loaf tins in the middle of the BBQ and bake for 30 minutes.

Cool in tins for 10 minutes, before turning out onto a wire rack.

Hot bbq tip:

Check progress every 10 minutes for uneven browning, and rotate where necessary to ensure even cooking.
