I'm a fan of Skinnytaste recipes, especially when I need
something different which pushes me to eat outside the box (i.e. the same
things different ways). I've seen the recipe for the Skinnytaste Roasted
Strawberry Banana Bread time after time, but had yet to try it out.
That is, until it turned out that I had a few extra ripe bananas and some
excess strawberries in the refrigerator that were in need of use.
Before trying this recipe, I would have never thought of roasting
strawberries, but it's definitely a unique twist. It brought a whole new flavor
and level of moistness to the banana bread that was truly unique. I love the
classic banana bread (with walnuts) but I have to say ... this took the “cake”.
This is undoubtedly one of the best banana breads I have tried. As with classic
deserts strawberries typically always compliment banana … so it’s no real
wonder to me as to why this is a fabulous combination.
The bread itself was delicious. Moist, soft, a little chewy
and was a perfect spin on a classic. Out of the two banana breads I made
(the classic with walnuts and this) the strawberry was gone within a day and a
half and the classic lingered a little longer.
The greatest part is a serving (1/16th of the loaf) is only 88 calories and
for those who follow Weight Watchers, a slice was only 2 points plus values.
If you’d like to give the bread a try, you can find the
recipe on the skinnytaste website.
