Description
A delightful loaf perfect for summer, featuring fresh strawberries and a creamy glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons strawberry puree (for glaze)
- 1 tablespoon milk (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
- In a bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, combine the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth and creamy.
- Gently mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined; it’s okay if there are a few lumps!
- Fold in the chopped strawberries gently, encouraging them to spread throughout the batter without breaking apart.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top to create an even surface.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the bread cools, make the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, strawberry puree, and milk until you achieve a smooth consistency.
- Drizzle the glaze generously over the cooled bread, allowing it to beautifully cascade down the sides.
- Slice and enjoy your glorious Glazed Strawberry Bread with loved ones or savor it all for yourself!
