Step-by-Step Instructions

  3. Mix in the eggs, full-fat sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the all-purpose flour and baking soda; mix until just combined.
  5. Fold in the mashed ripe bananas and finely chopped strawberries.
  6. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan, smoothing the top.
  7. Decorate with sliced strawberries on top.
