GF COCONUT, BANANA & RASPBERRY LOAF

This is my go-to recipe whenever I’m heading over to a friends place and told to ‘bring nothing’. It’s super moist and even more delicious!!!

Being gluten and grain free it’s super friendly on the gut without making an compromises on the taste and texture.  Feel free to use fresh berries as well, I’ve cooked with both and they are equally as tasty as each other

Promise this one will be a crowd pleaser!

Tip: This recipe freezes very well too
