    🥘 Ingredients

    Vegetable Oil- You will need some vegetable oil or canola oil to give the bread the necessary fats so it isn't too dry.

    Sugar- Use granulated sugar for added sweetness and to help give us a more tender crumb.

    Eggs- These are binding agents to keep the bread from being too crumbly.

    Bananas- Use some ripe yellow bananas. The ones with spots or that are close to being completely black are best because they're sweeter and more flavorful.

    Strawberries- Use some fresh washed strawberries for added color and flavor.

    Salt- A natural flavor enhancer.

    Vanilla Extract- A flavor enhancer.

    Leavening agents- To help this bread rise properly, you'll need baking soda and baking powder.

    Flour- The gluten structure and base of this recipe is all purpose four.

    For the exact amounts needed, please see the recipe card below.

    Slice and serve.

    🍴 Recipe Tips

    If you want a stronger strawberry flavor infused throughout the bread add the strawberries to the bowl of bananas when you mash them. Use a potato masher to squash them up as small as you can. Chunks will remain, but the strawberry juice will get distributed throughout the batter.

    This banana strawberry bread also browns fairly quickly in the oven. Check on it about midway through the baking process and if you want to slow down the browning process, tent the top of the bread pan with a piece of aluminum foil. The bread will continue to cook without getting too dark on top.

    💭 FAQs

    Is strawberry banana bread dairy free?

    Yes! This bread recipe doesn't require any dairy products to help make it. This means that it is 100% dairy free!

    How can I ripen bananas faster?

    If your bananas need a little speeding up, you can stick them on a baking sheet in the oven for 15-30 minutes at 300F degrees until black. Keep an eye on them though as they can overripen and leak. You want the peels black and shiny.
