Banana bread is sort of like our friend, the cheesecake, one main ingredient with the possibility of so many varieties. Two weeks ago, I made this strawberry banana bread, for some friends and I, while we brunched. YES! I brunch in past tense. Since we are getting to know one another, let me just put it on the table, I am a 'Creating My Own Words Connoisseur....Hahaha! Maybe, I should have my own dictionary.
Ok, back to business. It's crazy how a person can be so turned off by a banana on its own, but give them a slice of banana bread and it's a day in paradise. That's me, I love a good slice, but give me a banana or banana flavoured drink, and I yack. That's why this banana bread is a bundle full of fun. Strawberries and banana mix, makes for a great tropical getaway in a baked good, while sitting on the couch watching Netflix. I know my Taysties love a good Netflix and snack. Try the recipe, then let's gist. Muah....Xoxo!
