Description
A moist and flavorful strawberry bread made with juicy berries and warm cinnamon, perfect for breakfast or dessert.
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup oil
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 (10-oz) bag frozen strawberries, thawed and diced (do not drain)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, oil, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, then whisk until fully combined.
- Add flour and gently fold until just combined; the batter will be thick. Fold in the diced strawberries with their juices until evenly incorporated.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 50–60 minutes, covering loosely with foil after 40 minutes if the top browns too quickly, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Do not drain the strawberries; their juices add moisture and flavor.
- If strawberries are not fully thawed, baking time may increase.
- Cover loosely with foil during baking to prevent over-browning.
- Store at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
- Can be frozen for up to 2 months; thaw before serving.
