Description:
This healthy banana bread made with whole wheat pastry flour and flaxseeds is beautiful when sliced thanks to the bright red raspberries and cranberries folded in. The contrast of sweet banana flavor and tart berry is a nice surprise.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan.
Mix whole wheat pastry flour, all-purpose flour, flaxseeds, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Remove 2 tablespoons flour mixture and toss with raspberries and cranberries in a separate bowl. Stir together bananas, brown sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla in a separate large bowl. Add flour mixture to banana mixture, stirring just until combined. Gently fold in raspberries and cranberries until evenly blended. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
Bake about 1 hour, or until browned and a pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 20 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
