If you're up for a little baking, make this delicious recipe for breakfast or morning or afternoon tea - great to make up in advance and take for lunchbox treats (I'm taking some to work this week!).

Ingredients

  • 2 tb raspberries (frozen or fresh)

  • 1 1/2 cups self raising flour

  • 1/2 tsp bicarb soda

  • 1 egg

  • 4 reasonably sized bosc pears, peeled and cored (or pears from 825g tin - reserve juice/nectar )

  • 1/3 cup brown sugar

  • 1/2 cup canola oil

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Process the raspberries to make a puree - you could just crush and whisk if you didn't have a processor (or you may like to heat and mix then cool).

    Place the rest of the ingredients in a food processor and process for about 20 seconds - if you are mixing with a mixer start with egg and oil and add chopped pears, flour and bicarb.

    Add half the mixture into a greased loaf pan and then add half the raspberry puree, fold in gently - then add the rest of the mixture and puree, again ribbon it through the mix.

    I love how this food processor has a smaller inner bowl and a larger outer bowl, you don't need to wash up in between!

    Bake for 1 hour, cool on rack and slice when cooled.

    Suitable to freeze for up to 2 months in an airtight container or wrap.
