The whole family loves this delicious Strawberry Banana Bread Recipe because it has the classic taste of banana bread but with the added sweetness of strawberries….perfect for Spring!
There’s something about combining strawberry and banana that just makes Spring feel like it’s right around the corner. Last week I shared this Strawberry Cupcake Recipe with Banana Cream Frosting which is always a hit at parties. But, for an everyday recipe, this homemade banana bread with strawberries makes a simple and delicious snack.
I love to go strawberry picking with the kids at a local farm and then come home and we bake this bread together. It teaches the kids about where food comes from and gives them something yummy to eat as well.
