Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan, or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Gradually whisk in the vegetable oil and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Gently fold in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in 2-3 additions, alternating with milk. Mix just until combined. Do not overmix.
Add the diced fresh strawberries and chopped walnuts to the batter. Fold gently with a spatula until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once done, 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.
Slice and serve your Strawberry Walnut Bread. Enjoy it plain, with butter, or a dollop of cream cheese!
