How to Make Strawberry Bread
This is an easy strawberry bread recipe using ingredients from your pantry that will be ready in no time!
Step 1: Place the strawberries in a medium bowl and lightly coat with sugar and set aside until thawed, then slice.
Step 2: Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare 2 loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt and baking soda and mix well. In a separate bowl, blend the oil and eggs in with the chopped strawberries and add to the dry ingredients. At this point you would stir in pecans (optional).
Step 3: Divide the batter between two pans and bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then remove the scrumptious strawberry bread from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
How to Store Strawberry Bread
Refrigerator: Once the bread has cooled to room temperature, tightly wrap the bread with plastic wrap or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Freezer: Once the bread has cooled to room temperature, wrap by slice or loaf with plastic wrap and put in a resealable freezer bag. The bread may be stored for up to 3 months. Thaw the bread in the refrigerator. Remember to date your bag before freezing!
