VARIATIONS & TIPS:
Any berries work well, such as raspberries or even a mix of your favourite berries.
This loaf is not very sweet, add 1/2 cup of sugar if you feel the need in step 2.
Try this loaf toasted with a cup of tea it's delicious.
This bread is a great breakfast on the run or lunchbox snack.
Try some different toppings, mascarpone cheese with a little honey is my favourite.
