Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe bananas mashed
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries hulled and chopped
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas and melted butter. Stir until well mixed.
  3. Add the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract to the banana mixture. Mix until combined.
  4. Sprinkle the baking soda, salt, and cinnamon over the mixture and stir to combine.
  5. Gradually add the flour, mixing until just incorporated. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
