Small dried fruit such as cranberries, blueberries, and of course, raisins work well in banana bread. Oil emulsifies and coats the flour, preventing it from absorbing too much water which results in dry banana bread. With a spatula, fold dry and wet ingredients together for a tender crumb. If you like nuts, sprinkle them over the top of the bread instead of mixing them into the batter for a crunchy texture and toasted flavor. In the life of a banana, the time between "perfectly ripe" and "overripe" can be but a fleeting moment.
