Kiwifruit and Banana Bread – Curtis Stone 奇异果香蕉面包
I love Curtis Stone’s Banana Walnut Bread and I’ve baked it a couple of times. So this time I want to try this recipe Kiwifruit and Banana Bread from Curtis Stone again. I was a bit sceptical making this bread because I wasn’t very sure about the measurements and baking time. The 340g of flour seems too much for 2 eggs and the baking time stated in the recipe was 45 minutes. I had reduced the kiwifruit from 3 to 2 because those that I bought were quite big and very sour. Nevertheless, I went ahead to bake this bread and my baking time was one hour and 25 minutes. Luckily the end result was not too bad. It tasted exactly like bread, not very sweet but soft. Best to cut the bread, chilled, as it was quite soft and crumbly freshly baked.

Author: Ann Low
Ingredients
- 2¼ cups Self-raising flour (340g)
- 1tsp Cinnamon powder
- ⅔ cup Brown sugar (120g), or add 15g more sugar if you prefer a sweeter bread
- ½ cup Desiccated coconut (35g)
- 2 Eggs (70g each)
- ½ cup Fresh milk (100g)
- 60g Butter, melted, cooled
- 1tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 Ripe banana (I used 1½ bananas = about 150g)
- 2 Kiwifruit (170g), peeled
- 2 Kiwifruit, peeled and slice for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180C. Line a 21cm x 10cm (base measurement about 10 x 5 inch) loaf tin with baking paper. Line the base and 2 long sides with baking paper, allowing the sides to overhang.
- Sift the flour and cinnamon powder into a large bowl. Stir in the brown sugar and desiccated coconut. Make a well in the centre.
- Whisk the eggs, milk, butter and vanilla in a measuring cup, set aside.
- Process the banana and 2 kiwifruit in a food processor or blender until smooth. Add the egg mixture and banana mixture to the flour mixture and fold until just combined.
- Pour into the prepared tin. Slice the remaining kiwifruit, and arrange on top. Bake for 1 hour 25 minutes or or until cooked when tested with a skewer. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

I have Amway Kiwi juice. I will try one day.
Wonderful flavours, Ann. The other day I thought about adding mango puree to the banana bread…now I know it will work great with kiwi too. Thanks for sharing, Ann. The photos are very beautiful.
I love how the baked kiwis look on the cake!
This is a strikingly beautiful loaf, love the kiwis on top!
Hi Ann,
What a lovely combination of flavours! I have never tried using kiwi fruit in banana bread. The tartness from the kiwi fruit must have really complement the sweetness of the bananas!
Thanks for linking!
又是一个很赞的食谱。。。原来还有把奇异果汁加入面包里,真的很特别。我要一片试试
Helena, 食谱蛮健康的,就是不是很香。当面包吃还不错。我还是比较喜欢之前哪个食谱。
Wow~ The cake is so beautiful and healthy with load of yummy fruits!!!

Banana bread with kiwi sounds so interesting, really worth trying!
Ann, this is a fruity combination that I never thought of even though I love both fruits! The kiwi fruit does make a decorative topping.
Hi Ann, I made this recipe before… and found it so so… the kiwis makes it look really beautiful though!
Hi Mich, You're right. This bread doesn't have much of the banana taste, might be probably due to too much flour and kiwifruits were used. Anyway, the bread was quite soft even after chilled.
Hi Ann, I just made Curtis's banana walnuts bread last week, it was dense and delicious! This kiwi and banana combination sounds interesting and the bread looks very nice1
How interesting! And very creative! The banana and kiwis combination sounds so good.
I had no idea that you could cook with Kiwi, Ann. I can definitely understand you being skeptical. I would be too but, it looks simply lovely. I can't even imagine how fresh and delicious it must taste. It sure looks inviting:) Thank you so much for sharing, Ann…
A great looking loaf of bread, I like how you decorate it with the kiwi slices on the top too!
好诱人的绿色奇异果, 这个肯定要尝试。。。真谢谢您的分享!
Mummy2311, 这面包没有什么香蕉的味道有点淡,但是很松软。
Good morning there! I have just finished my lunch though it is just a good start of the day in Singapore! Looks like Curtis has many good banana bread recipes around. I like the top where the sliced kiwi fruits are nicely arranged. Can I have one for today's afternoon tea?
Hi Jessie, sorry for the late reply. Have been quite busy this week. This bread doesn't taste like a cake at all, not very sweet but quite healthy. But I still prefer the previous banana bread, taste better.
香蕉加kiwi,哇。。都是营养丰富的水果,这甜点实在太棒!
哇!新鲜水果面包。充满活力的。很赞吧!就先把食谱纪录了。谢谢你我的偶像。嘻嘻嘻 。。
good for breakfast and tea.
Being a kiwi, I love the use of kiwifruit on the top of the banana bread, I would have never thought to use it!
so nicely decorated! i like it especially more when you have sliced it
我也是喜欢那排列的奇异果, 美丽又好吃!
This is rather unique. Like the topping, pretty.
Hi Ann,This is strange that the recipe stated just 45 mins and you have baked your cake with double amount of baking time. Nevertheless, the kiwi cake look beautiful and deliciously moist.Zoe
I have Amway Kiwi juice. I will try one day.

Hi Amanda, Thank you for leaving your comment on my blog. I think you can also use the golden kiwifruits which are sweeter than the green ones.
