This Strawberry Banana Bread makes a great breakfast treat or afternoon coffee break snack. I tried a couple of different versions before sharing the recipe with you here – one with just strawberries and one with strawberries plus strawberry jam. The one with strawberry jam (the recipe I’m sharing with you below) has more strawberry flavor so that’s the winning recipe to me! My son is a banana bread eating machine so I was lucky to get some pictures before his little fingers snuck in to grab handfuls of banana bread when I wasn’t looking. The little stinker. {wink}
