- Cut the strawberries into small pieces – 0.2 inch (0.5 cm) – place in a small mixing bowl, sprinkle a tablespoon of flour on top, and stir to coat. Set aside.
- Peel and mash the bananas using a fork. Measure the exact amount required by the recipe 1 cup + 1/2 cup of mashed bananas. If you have leftovers, freeze them in Ziploc bags and use them in a smoothie later.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk mashed bananas, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, almond extract, and vanilla extract if used. Whisk until well combined.
- Add in the self-raising flour, cinnamon if used, and stir with a rubber spatula until a thick batter forms.

- Transfer the banana bread batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- If you like, sprinkle sliced almonds on top of the bread.
- Bake the bread on the center rack for 50-55 minutes at 350°F (180°C) until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the bread comes out clean or with only a tiny crumb on it. Foil the loaf pan if the top starts to brown too fast.
- Lift the hanging part of parchment paper to release the bread onto a cooling rack.
- Let the bread cool for about 1-2 hour before slicing.

You only need a few ingredients to make this bread. Here’s how to pick and swap them.

- Muussattu banaani – This provides moisture, sweetness, and structure. Very ripe bananas are best.
- Vaahterasiirappi – This sweetens the bread naturally. Any liquid sweetener works.
- Sulatettu kookosöljy – This adds moisture and tenderness. Any low-flavor oil is fine.
- Itsekohoava jauho – This provides structure and leavening. For a gluten-free option, use my gluteeniton muuntaja, mutta älä unohda leivinjauhetta.
- mansikat – These add a fruity flavor and moisture. Fresh or frozen strawberries are suitable.
- Vaniljauute – This enhances the overall flavor.
- Kaneli – This adds warm, sweet spice.
- Manteliuutetta – This adds a nutty flavor that complements the strawberries.
- Viipaloidut mantelit – These add a crunchy topping.

Carinen leivontavinkkejä

I made this gluten free and I used oat flour and it came out wonderful!
I had to of course add baking powder/soda.
Can you add unflavored or vanilla protein powder?
I haven’t tried adding protein powder to this recipe, I do have a proteiinipitoinen banaanileipäresepti for you if you prefer!
