Carob Strawberry Banana Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9- by 5-inch loaf pan.
• Roughly chop 1/2 cup of the walnuts, and finely chop the remaining 2 tablespoons, keeping them separate.
• Whisk together the flour, sugar, roughly chopped walnuts, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a medium bowl.
• Whisk together the oil, eggs, vanilla and zest. Fold in the bananas and strawberries. Fold the oil mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are some lumps). Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, and sprinkle the top with the finely chopped walnuts.
• Bake until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges, and let cool completely in the pan on a rack. The bread can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 Mix first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Using a mixer, beat at a medium speed. Mix bananas, oats, and milk seperately. Then add to sugar mixture. Beat well. Combine flours, bran, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Add to sugar mixture and stir until just combined. Fold in Strawberries and Carob chips. Coat a 9X 5 loaf pan with cooking spray and spoon batter into it. Bake at 350 for an hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (with the exception of melted chocolate on in). Cool in pan for 30 minutes and then let cool completely on wire rack. Cooks note: I mash 3 bananas and cut up the fourth, so there are small pieces of banana in the bread. You can also vary this recipe by omiting the strawberries and carob chips, adding walnuts or pecans, adding blueberries, raspberries, or peach slices, etc.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl combine dry ingredients. IN a blender combine remaining ingredients or mix well by hand. When blended, the yield will be approximately 2 ½ cups. Add blended ingredients to dry ingredients and mix well.

• Add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg to the strawberry-banana mixture, beating just until combined. Stir in walnuts. Pour batter into the prepared pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes for mini loaf and 1 hour for larger loaves.
