I would have to say raspberries or Blackberries. Great source of fiber and a balanced glucose/fructose mix.
Black Berries
1 cup: Carbohydrate 13.8g BUT Dietary Fiber 7.6g
Raspberries
1 cup: Carbohydrate 14.7g BUT Dietary Fiber 8.0g
You can't go wrong with that amount of fiber and no guilt with the carbs.
I'll blend them in a protein drink sometimes.

25-50 gr carbs with 25gr protein 5 hours prior
25-50 gr carbs (glucose/fructose mix) 2 hours prior
Banannas and berries are great for the meal 2 hours prior."Arterial plaque is primarily composed of unsaturated fats particularly polyunsaturated ones." (Felton, C V, et al, Lancet, 1994, 344:1195)

I personally have a single banana (medium size) about an hour before my depletion workout.
