The whole family will love this easy peasy Thermomix Strawberry and Banana Loaf!
There really isn't much you will not love about this recipe, it uses up both bananas and strawberries which have seen better days, takes less than five minutes to put together, is lunchbox and freezer friendly and everyone will love it!
With the price of bananas and strawberries so reasonable at the moment, this recipe has been a regular in our house for the past month or two. Both of my boys love it and it's a great treat to add to the kindy lunchbox. However for the ultimate indulgence, lightly toast a nice thick slice of this Strawberry and Banana Loaf and top it with cream cheese - you will love it I promise!

Shonny says
Is there any way I could reduce the amount of sugar or substitute it for something else?
Lauren Matheson says
Hi Shonny, you could try reducing the sugar or you could also try splitting it with some desiccated coconut. It will change the texture slightly though
Sarah says
Is there anything else you can subitute for the Coconut Oil?
Lucy Mathieson says
Hi Sarah, you can use vegetable oil or butter as alternatives (we do recommend coconut oil for the best taste in this recipe though!). xx
Mila says

Can this loaf be made into muffins? I'm loving this recipe but wanting to make for school lunches and find muffins easier for the children.
Kind Regards
