🥘 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.

🍴 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.
