Here’s a sweet and moist Strawberry Bread recipe—perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert. 🍓🍞
🍓 Strawberry Bread
🛒 Ingredients (Makes 1 loaf)
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted (or vegetable oil)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped (or frozen, thawed and drained)
- Optional: ½ cup chopped nuts or white chocolate chips
🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat Oven
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
2️⃣ Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3️⃣ Mix Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter (or oil), sugar, eggs, and vanilla.
4️⃣ Combine
- Gently fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients until just combined.
- Fold in chopped strawberries and optional nuts or chocolate.
5️⃣ Bake
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6️⃣ Cool & Serve
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove and cool completely on a wire rack.
- Slice and enjoy plain, with butter, or a light glaze.
💡 Tips
- Toss strawberries in a little flour before adding to batter to prevent sinking.
- For extra sweetness, drizzle a simple glaze made of powdered sugar and milk over the cooled bread.
- Frozen strawberries work well but must be thawed and drained to avoid extra moisture.
If you want, I can also give a quick strawberry bread muffin version that bakes in 20–25 minutes—perfect for fast breakfast or snacks. 🍓🧁
