We're banana bread maniacs, which basically means we don't stop at classic; we're constantly trying to figure out new ways to make it. This brainchild combines two of our favorite desserts: banana bread and strawberry shortcake ... and strawberry shortcake means strawberry season. Expect us to be bingeing on the berries from now until September.

Freshly whipped cream, for serving
3 Super ripe bananas, mashed
1 cup Sliced strawberries, plus more for serving
