Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 180c
2

Melt butter, then add Sugar and whisk together until creamy
3

Add the 2 eggs along with the vanilla extract and whisk together until completely combined and the mixture is smooth.
4

Peel the bananas and add them to a separate bowl. Using the end of the whisk or a dinner fork, mash them into the batter. Leave the bananas as chunky or as smooth as you prefer. If you prefer an entirely smooth banana bread, mash the bananas separately until no more lumps remain, and then whisk them into the batter along with the lemon zest

Add the flour, soda and baking powder, salt and gently fold with a spatula.
6

Add the strawberries and gently fold.
7

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf tin and put on the middle shelf.

Bake for 50 to 65 minutes. Bake until the top of the cake is caramelized dark brown with some yellow interior peeking through
9

Bake for 1hr - 1-hr 15 minutes. Bake until the top of the cake is caramelized dark brown. Use a toothpick or cake tester and put into the middle of the bread, and see if comes out clean. Baking time will vary slightly depending on the moisture and sugar content of your bananas — start checking around 50 minutes and then every 5 minutes after

Leave to cool for 15 mins and enjoy!
