Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh strawberry puree or milk (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This is your base for a tender loaf.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Alternate adding the dry ingredients mixture and the milk to the wet ingredients, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix only until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries. Try not to mash them.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  8. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the strawberry bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. While the bread cools, prepare the glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar and strawberry puree (or milk) until smooth. Add more liquid, a teaspoon at a time, if the glaze is too thick.
  11. Drizzle the strawberry glaze over the cooled bread before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • To prevent the fresh strawberries from sinking to the bottom of the loaf, lightly toss them in one tablespoon of the measured flour before folding them into the batter.
  • For a brighter glaze flavor, substitute the strawberry puree with fresh lemon juice.
  • This homemade strawberry bread is excellent served warm with butter.
