Whispering Canyon Cafe's Strawberry Banana Bread

Originally I was going to be making cornbread (who doesn't love that?), but found this recipe and knew I had to give it a try! I have never made any form of banana bread before, and love the idea of trying it for the first time in adding strawberries. It's definitely something my kids love, and will be a family favorite snack!


You will need:

1 cup butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups ripe bananas (about 6 medium size), mashed
4 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
3 cups flour
1 1/2 pounds frozen sliced strawberries, thawed


First, pre-heat oven to 325 degrees, and grease your bread pans. Then, cream the butter and sugar together, and gradually add in the bananas. Once that is well mixed, scrape sides of the bowl, and add the eggs in one at a time (make sure each egg is mixed well before moving on to the next one).

In another bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt together. After the butter/banana mix is done, add this and stir well. Add the strawberries and stir until everything is well mixed. Pour into bread pans, and place in oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center is removed with no crumbs.
