Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; stir lightly.
Add dry ingredients to banana mixture and stir.
Pour batter into 3 well-greased loaf pans.  Bake for 45-60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow finished strawberry banana loaves to cool in pans for 10 minutes.  Remove from pans and place on a cooling rack; cool completely.

nkunz - the recipe is exactly as it reads - 2 tsp baking soda and 1/2 baking powder. Thanks! Kim

Is the recipe really right? It calls for 2 tsp baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. It seems like that would be opposite.

Thanks Mindylicious! The bread can certainly stand alone without the lemon glaze. Infact, that is how my 8 year old wants it! You go with what YOU like. Enjoy & Happy Baking! Kim

Noticed I had four brownish bananas and some overripe strawberries this morning, so this recipe came to my mind! My loaves are now cooling but I haven't been able to resist taking a few nibbles. SO YUMMY!! I haven't tried the lemon glaze - not much of a lemon fan, but the bread stands alone just fine. Thanks for the recipe!!
