Commercial gluten-free breads can be a little dense, but this loaf delivers a fine texture that you won't believe. And with sweet cinnamon and raisins, it becomes the most delicious breakfast staple.
Banana flavour permeates every layer of this pretty square. If your family loves banana cream pie and chocolate cream pie, you'll find this will be a new favourite.

Here, pistachios add flecks of green to the loaf. Look for the shelled variety in the baking aisle of supermarkets or in specialty stores. Or buy 2 cups (500 mL) unsalted pistachios and shell them yourself. Slice and serve this loaf with a cup of tea.
