Strawberry Banana Bread
This easy Strawberry Banana Bread recipe is made with greek yogurt instead of oil or butter. It's loaded with fresh strawberries and easy to prep and bake!
Servings: 12 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mashed banana
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup whole milk Greek yogurt
- ½ cup small diced strawberries
- ½ chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F and line a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving excess on the two longer sides.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt; set aside.
- In another larger bowl, mash the bananas. Add the eggs, sugar and yogurt and whisk with the mashed bananas until well combined. Add flour mixture on top of the banana mixture and fold with a rubber spatula until no streaks of flour remain, being careful not to overmix. Gently fold in the diced strawberries and walnuts.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean. You may need to tent the loaf with a sheet of aluminum foil after 35 minutes if it is browning too quickly.
- Let cool for at least 20 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Notes
Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can freeze the bread for up to 3 months. Just thaw overnight in the fridge and bring to room temperature before serving.
Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
- Instead of greek yogurt, you can use sour cream or a neutral oil using a 1:1 substitution.
- I tested this recipe with a whole wheat white flour, but it will work with any other all purpose flours.
- To make this gluten-free, use an all-purpose gluten-free flour mix. Do not substitute only almond flour or only coconut flour.
- Replace cane sugar with other types of granulated sugar, reduce it or you can skip it all together.
