Time 3h25m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup vegetable oil, plus more for greasing the pan
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons walnuts
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
2 very ripe bananas, mashed
8 ounces strawberries, hulled and cut into 1/4- to 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9- by 5-inch loaf pan.
  • Roughly chop 1/2 cup of the walnuts, and finely chop the remaining 2 tablespoons, keeping them separate.
  • Whisk together the flour, sugar, roughly chopped walnuts, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk together the oil, eggs, vanilla and zest. Fold in the bananas and strawberries. Fold the oil mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are some lumps). Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, and sprinkle the top with the finely chopped walnuts.
  • Bake until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges, and let cool completely in the pan on a rack. The bread can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • For a moist and flavorful banana bread, use very ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful the bread will be.
  • Use whole wheat flour for a healthier twist. Whole wheat flour is packed with nutrients and fiber, making it a healthier choice than all-purpose flour.
  • Add a variety of mix-ins to your bread for extra flavor and texture. Some popular mix-ins include nuts, chocolate chips, dried fruits, and spices.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in a tough, dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will result in a dry, crumbly bread.

If you're looking for a delicious and healthy treat, this Whole Wheat Strawberry Banana Bread is the perfect recipe for you!
