Once you've tried this amazing strawberry and banana cake, I guarantee you'll be making it again. And again. ;-)Usually, I'll make banana bread, banana muffins or even a hair mask when I have some over-ripe bananas to use up. Last weekend though, I found myself with not only 3 very brown looking bananas that needed to be used but also with a punnet of strawberries that were just this side of being ok to use.I considered making smoothies for everyone but decided to adapt my banana bread recipe to make it a bit more 'cakey' and add in some chopped strawberries to make a … [Read more...]
