Tips for Glazed Strawberry Bread

• Use fresh strawberries when possible. Fresh berries provide the best flavor and texture. If using frozen strawberries, thaw and drain them well.
• Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread tough instead of soft. Stir only until the ingredients are combined.
• Coat strawberries with flour. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf.
• Add lemon zest for extra flavor. A little lemon zest pairs beautifully with strawberries and makes the bread taste brighter.

– Butter or oil adds richness and keeps the bread moist.

– Eggs help bind everything together and give the bread a tender texture.

– Milk or buttermilk adds moisture and keeps the loaf soft.

How to Make Glazed Strawberry Bread :

Step 1

Begin the process preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper so the bread does not stick.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mixing the dry ingredients first helps them spread evenly throughout the batter.

Step 2

In another large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar. Beat them until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. This step adds air into the batter and helps the bread become soft.

Add the eggs one at a time. Mix well after each egg. Then stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 3

Right after slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Alternate with the milk. Stir gently until everything is just combined. Avoid overmixing because that can make the bread dense.

Toss the diced strawberries with one tablespoon of flour. This small step prevents the strawberries from sinking to the bottom of the bread.

Step 4

Carefully fold the strawberries into the batter using a spatula then pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 5

Proceed with allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

While the bread cools, prepare the glaze. Mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.

Step 6

Added to once the bread is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top. Let it set for a few minutes before slicing.

Now your Glazed Strawberry Bread is ready to enjoy.
