Ingredients

• 3 pieces Ripe Bananas
• 1 cup Fresh Strawberries
• 1 cup Macadamia Nuts (chopped)
• 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
• 0.75 cup Granulated Sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
• 0.5 cup Unsalted Butter (melted)
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 2 tablespoons Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan, or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher. Set aside.

Step 3

Gently wash, hull, and dice the strawberries into small pieces, then set them aside in a separate bowl.

Step 4

In another large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until evenly combined.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, whisk the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until well incorporated.

Step 6

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined—do not overmix.

Step 7

Fold in the mashed bananas, diced strawberries, and chopped macadamias gently until distributed evenly throughout the batter.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 11

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to one week.
