Strawberry Banana Bread

There is something about the smell of banana bread baking in the oven!  Sometimes it is good changing things up a little bit too…..like taking our family banana bread recipe and adding strawberries to it.  I recently had some extra bananas and strawberries that needed to be used up.  For a change of pace I decided to do a Strawberry Banana Bread which was a huge hit with the family.  The base recipe is our family recipe – Nancy’s Banana Bread with just a 1/2 cup of pureed strawberries for an added touch.   This recipe is easy to put together and delicious too.

Strawberry Banana Bread:

• 2 cups Flour
• 1 tablespoon Water
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1 cup Sugar
• 1/2 cup pureed Strawberries
• 2 Bananas, mashed

Mix all the ingredients together.  Place in greased and floured bread pan.  Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
