3Ripe Bananas mashed

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar with a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy.
Add the sour cream and eggs, one at a time, mixing until combined. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Add the mashed bananas and mix until combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined. Do not over mix.
Toss the chopped strawberries with the remaining 3 tablespoons of flour. Gently fold the strawberries into the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top begins to brown too quickly, loosely tent the loaf with foil.
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully remove the bread and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice and serve.
Notes
Watch the bread closely toward the end of the cook time. If the top of the bread is browning too quickly, tent the top of the pan with foil to prevent it from getting too browned.Store any leftover bread in an airtight container or bag at room temperature for up to 4-5 days.
