Ingredients

The following ingredients have 10 Servings
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries (hulled and sliced)
  • 2 very ripe bananas (mashed)
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp table salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs (room temp)
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup salted butter (melted)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350F, with rack on lower middle. Grease and flour a glass 8x5" loaf pan.
  • In a bowl, gently toss strawberries with the granulated sugar, coating all strawberries with sugar. Let sit.
  • In large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  • In separate bowl, beat eggs until slightly foamy. Add vanilla, brown sugar, and melted butter (not too hot.) Add in the macerated strawberries and mashed bananas.
  • Using rubber spatula, gently fold flour mixture into the egg/butter mixture, just until dry ingredients are moistened.
  • Scrape batter into prepared pan. Bake about 1 hour to 1.5 hours, or until toothpick in center comes out almost clean, with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let bread cool completely in pan on wire rack prior to slicing. Overnight works best.
