RECIPE
Strawberry Bread
I love quick breads, they are definitely one of my favorite things to make. Besides being delicious and super easy to make. I love that they remind me of my childhood. My mom was always making quick breads. We have been on a strawberry kick in our house and I made this bread one while the kids were in school. They saw it when they got home and couldn’t wait to try it. I hadn’t even taken pictures yet, but that didn’t matter to them. So I took the pictures and they dug into it. In fact the oldest one has been eating a piece every day wether it is part of her lunch or a snack. She loves it.
I have only made this bread with fresh strawberries, I haven’t used frozen strawberries, so I can’t tell you how it will do. But I can tell you this bread is absolutely delicious. I mean just as good as my Banana Bread, which is my favorite. Make sure you mix the cut strawberries with a little bit of flour, this will help the strawberries from sinking while baking.
The other day the girls and I had a slice of this bread with butter. It reminded me of times when my mom and me would have a slice of bread for an afternoon snack, what sweet memories. Now I get to make memories like that with my girls.
That’s the Dish from my Kitchen to your Kitchen ????
