Notes

Be sure to use very ripe bananas in the recipe, as this will work best for giving it a moist, tender crumb. It is best to use fresh strawberries, but if need be, you can also use frozen strawberries as well.
Store the strawberry banana bread at room temperature in an airtight container for up to three days. In addition, you can also store the bread in the fridge for up to seven days in an airtight container.
