  • 2 large eggs bind the ingredients together and add moisture
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract elevates the overall flavor profile

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Mash the bananas in a large mixing bowl using a fork until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Stir the melted butter into the mashed bananas until fully incorporated.
  4. Add granulated and brown sugar, mixing until blended. Then add eggs and vanilla extract.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring gently until combined.
  7. Fold in the strawberries gently to integrate without breaking them.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

  10. Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
