Strawberry Bread

I'm getting overwhelmed by all the fresh and delicious fruits now.  I just love a plain dish of mixed fruit with a little sugar sprinkled on top but sometimes I feel the need to create this moist bread with one of my favorite fruits.





Strawberry Bread

1 stick of butter
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
6 oz plain Greek yogurt
1 3/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cups strawberries, diced

Cream butter and sugar.  Add in eggs and yogurt.  Gradually add in dry ingredients.  Add in strawberries last. 

Bake for 1 hour at 350°.

I used a hand mixer so the strawberries were blended in and the bread turned a nice pink color.

    I think this strawberry bread would taste amazing. I've never seen one before, but I love strawberries so much that I have to make this... I must know the taste!

    I'm totally feeling the Greek yogurt in this recipe. Good call on this one.

    Thanks Dawn. I've been using it a lot lately and really liking the moisture and a little tang it adds to recipes.

    Im a stickler for all that butter, what other substitutes can be used to cut the fat in half. Looking Forward to making the deliousious bread.

      You can try using 6 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.
