Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cup milk
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1.5 cups strawberries, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, combine milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and the egg. Whisk until well blended.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined.
Fold in the finely chopped strawberries until evenly distributed through the batter. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the bread is baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the bread is completely cooled, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top. Let the glaze set for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
