ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mashed ripe banana
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, quartered and tossed in 3 tablespoons flour

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment and set aside.

  • Step 2

    To a large bowl, add the the first six ingredients, through vanilla, and whisk to combine. Add 1 1/4 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and fold with spatula until just combined; don’t overmix. Add the bananas and fold gently to combine. Add the strawberries tossed in 3 tablespoons flour and fold gently to combine. Batter will be on the thicker side.

  • Step 3

    Turn batter out into the prepared pan , smoothing the top lightly with a spatula. Bake for about 55 to 65 or until the top is golden, the center is set, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. Tip – Tent the pan with a sheet of foil draped loosely over it in the last 10 minutes if needed.
