    I'm planning to make this recipe for an almond-based blueberry banana bread:

    MAKES 1 LOAF

    Ingredients
    4 Bananas
    3 Eggs
    1 Teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
    3 Tablespoons of Honey/Maple Syrup
    1/4 Cup of Melted Coconut Oil (60ml)
    2 1/2 Cups of Ground Almonds (300g)
    1 Teaspoon of Baking Powder
    1 Teaspoon of Cinnamon
    1 Cup of Blueberries (100g)

    Bake at 170 for 55 mins.

    The trouble is I've no blueberries and I'm going to sub frozen mango chunks. I think the flavour will work but I'm worried about the texture. Any tips? Should I bake it for longer? Is this just a disaster waiting to happen?

    I cant see an issue , any fruit or nuts you might add don't affect the other ingredients , just chop it down so it spreads evenly

    Cheers.

    I've just popped it in the oven. I added 25g of dessicated coconut and a pinch of salt too. It looked and smelled great so hopefully it will bake well. Fingers crossed!

    It needed an hour and a half. But otherwise - complete success. Moist and tasty. :)

    I've got photos but I can't add them on this app. :(
