Strawberry Banana Bread takes two of my favorite ways to make a nice loaf of sweet delight and turns them into something truly smoothly rewarding. All the haunting flavors of warm rich banana bread with gentle whips of trace notes of strawberry will have food lovers closing their eyes as they chew so they are not distracted by all the bursts of flavor toping out of each bite. Fresh from the oven this Bread is so aromatic that it makes the house smell like a well baked banana strawberry dessert. Once I started to slice the loaf the “I am next” line started with empty plates and clamoring forks. It is both rewarding and almost heartbreaking how fast a work of art like this will go once the team knows it is on the menu.

In a large bowl; combine all the sugar and butter as you mix.
Then add one egg at a time while continuing to mix. Add vanilla extract and mix.
Add flour, salt, baking powder & baking soda to the bowl as you mix everything together.
(I highly recommend sifting the dry ingredients before adding to the wet ingredients, this will make the batter fluffy and not lumpy).
3 ripe bananas
Smash the ripe bananas using a fork.
Mix them into the batter.
Then add the coated strawberries to the batter.
Gently fold everything together using a spatula (Do not over mix or use a mixer).
Transfer the batter to the loaf pan.
Bake for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick placed in the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and rest the bread in the pan for 15-20 minutes before transferring the loaf to a cake rack to finish cooling.
Serve & enjoy!
