Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 0.75 cup chopped walnuts (or pecans)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the vegetable oil and vanilla extract, and whisk until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined; the batter will be thick.
Fold in the chopped strawberries and walnuts, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf 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 before slicing.
Serve slices as-is, or top with a spread of butter or cream cheese for added richness. Enjoy!
