Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, peel and mash the 3 ripe bananas until smooth. Whisk in 2 large eggs, 1/3 cup melted butter or coconut oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1.5 cups of flour, 3/4 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Gently fold the dry mixture into the wet banana mixture until just combined, still leaving some streaks of flour.
  5. Fold in 1 cup of raspberries and 1/2 cup of sliced almonds, reserving some almonds for topping.
  6. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and sprinkle the reserved almonds on top.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
