Healthy Strawberry Coconut Banana Bread

Today I want to tell you something about me before I tell you everything about this deliciousness.

I am Antonia, I love music, my dog and food. I am only 24 and I still don’t know what I am going to be in a few years, maybe I have my own restaurant, maybe I am living in my favorite town Toronto maybe I am a musician and you will hear my voice in the radio; who knows? 😉 Did I forget mentioning that I am also a dreamer? Life is not worth living without dreams right?

I am also the one who mostly checks Ninas English spelling because she’s a total disaster with it and since I am better in English than in my mother tongue German. But I haven’t read her latest postings, but yeah it makes her more authentic with the English spelling errors right?

Why are my recipes always only in US-metrics?

First of all I don’t own a kitchen scale.

Second of all, since I was a teenager I only ever used cups and teaspoons or just my eye and ever since I never used a scale again, only occasionally when Nina and I make something together.

Yep that’s the background story to why I only use cups.

Now to this delicious Strawberry Coconut Banana Bread! It’s perfect during the warmer summer months for breakfast, warmed up as a dessert with some vanilla ice cream or as a snack. It’s healthy too and made without refined sugars and high in protein if you use greek joghurt or Skyr Soy Joghurt like I did!

Before I forget yes this is a pink rhubarb which you can see in the picture, I had some left and placed it before baking on the bread as a decoration;)

Enjoy the banana bread and let me know how you liked it! Tag us with one of our recipes on social media @twosisterslivinglife and get a feature in our story as a thank you!

Love, Antonia

  Let loaf cool completely before transferring it onto a plate.
  

Notes

For a vegan version use 2 flaxseed eggs (mix 2 tbsps ground flaxseed meal with 3 tbsp water and lets sit for 15 minutes in the fridge) and instead of the greek yoghurt use a vegan option like vegan coconut yoghurt. Enjoy!
