strawberry whole wheat banana bread

Okay, so I am totally excited about sharing is recipe with everyone. Tom & I really enjoy banana bread, A LOT! Every couple of months after we have collected 4 or more banana's in the freezer we make banana bread, it's a special treat for us!

Last year while making banana bread I looked in the fridge and realized that we had some strawberries that were going to go bad soon. I decided to cut them up and toss them into the bread batter. After a hour of cooking, it was finally time to taste this mysterious bread. We were skeptical, thinking it would come out soggy. Well, we both were wrong, it was AMAZING, and now it's our absolute favorite bread to make! I have even thrown in a handful of semi-sweet chocolate chips, ahhhh it's ridiculously good!
