A delightful and moist strawberry loaf perfect for any occasion.
Slice the fresh strawberries and mix them with a tablespoon of sugar in a bowl. Let them sit for an hour to release their juices.
Use ripe strawberries for the best flavor and juiciness.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
Ensure the pan is well-greased to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
Sift the dry ingredients for a lighter texture.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, vanilla extract, and the strawberries with their juice.
Mix until the ingredients are just combined to avoid overmixing.
Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated.
Do not overmix to keep the bread tender.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Check the bread at 50 minutes to prevent overbaking.
Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling the bread allows it to set and makes slicing easier.
Slice and serve the loaf as a delightful snack or dessert.
Pair with cream cheese or butter for added richness.
