Tasty Tuesday: Stawberries & Cream Banana Bread~YUM!

I made this the day before I went in for my surgery & consequent adventure.

Here is what you will need:
2 c. plain flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 butter or margarine
2 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 tsp. vanila
3 mashed bananas
1 cup strawberries

Start by preheating the over to 350.

In mixing bowl, mis the flour, baking soda & powder. Like this:
In another bowl, cream butter & sugars. Add eggs, vanilla & sour cream & mashed banana's & mix. Stir in chopped strawberries. Like so:

Slowly add flour mix into wet ingredients, mixing as you go!

Pour into pan & bake for approx 1 hr...you know til the toothpick comes clean.

Allow to cool for 10 minutes & then remove & cool on cooling rack. I left it in my dish & it was fine.

This is delish!!!

I actually ate the last piece right before I was rushed back to the hospital.

Ah, good times!

Bobster said it was absolutely wonderful...so 2 thumbs up from the Bobster.
