Strawberry Banana Bread
PREP TIME
15 mins
COOK TIME
1 hr
Ingredients
1 stick butter softened at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
3 ripe bananas
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup strawberries chopped
3/4 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a 9 x 5 x 3 inch loaf pan.
Cream the sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a small bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Mix in the milk and cinnamon. (I actually prefer to put the bananas and the milk and cinnamon in the blender. The result is a nice smooth banana taste throughout the bread).
In another bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Add the banana mixture to the creamed mixture and stir until combined. Add dry ingredients, mixing just until flour disappears.
Fold in strawberries and chocolate chips. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Set aside to cool on a rack for 15 minutes. Remove bread from pan, invert onto rack and cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Store in an airtight container on the counter for up to 3 days.
