Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Fresh strawberries, diced
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and lightly dust it with flour, tapping out the excess.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until the dry ingredients are evenly mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter will be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the diced strawberries, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Once cooled, dust the top of the bread with powdered sugar for a decorative touch.
Slice and serve. Enjoy your Easy Strawberry Bread fresh or store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
