Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 1 cups granulated sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups whole milk
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
- 0.75 cups white chocolate chunks
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Optionally, line the pan with parchment paper for easier removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three parts, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.
Fold in the diced strawberries and white chocolate chunks until evenly distributed, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it 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.
Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving. Slice and enjoy!
