Moist and sweet strawberry bread with a delicious glaze makes a great breakfast, snack, or even dessert!
Ingredients :
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour + 1 tablespoon for dusting strawberries
1 teaspoon baking powder
¾ cup granulated sugar
½ cup salted Challenge butter (1 stick), softened
¼ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs room temperature
½ cup light cream
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 ¼ cups fresh strawberries diced, divided
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon milk or as needed
Directions :
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8×4-inch metal loaf pan.
In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt with a whisk. Set aside.
In a separate medium bowl, cream sugar and butter together. Add eggs, cream, and lemon juice. Mix well to combine.
Add the dry mixture to the butter mixture and stir just until combined. Do not overmix.
Set aside 2 tablespoons of strawberries for topping the bread. Toss the remaining strawberries with 1 tablespoon flour. Remove any excess flour and very gently fold them into the batter.
Spread the batter into the baking pan and top with reserved strawberries.
Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Remove from pan and cool on a wire rack.
