Banana bread with strawberries and dark chocolate

Originally, it was supposed to be a banana bread with raspberries, but when I went shopping I couldn't find raspberries anywhere, so I decided to buy strawberries instead and look for a different recipe. I am very glad that I did, because this is much easier and baking-novice-friendly recipe. Bread tates amazing and I think it will be one of my 'staple' recipes.

 

INGREDIENTS:

1 c. fresh strawberries1 3/4 c. all-purpose flour

2 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. baking soda

1/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. nutmeg

1/4 c. sweet butter

1/4 c. plus 2 tbsp. sugar

2 eggs

2 very ripe bananas, mashed

INSTRUCTIONS:

Toss strawberries with 2 tablespoons flour and set aside. Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg in small bowl. Cream butter slowly adding sugar, beating at medium speed; add eggs, beating well. Add flour mixture and bananas. Mix until dry ingredients are moist. Gently fold in strawberries.

Spoon batter into loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
