Strawberry Bread is an easy quick bread recipe, which means you do not have to let it rise. Quick Breads are made with baking powder or baking soda instead of yeast so they don’t have to rise or rest before baking. We love the flavor of this Strawberry Bread, especially when you add the luscious strawberry glaze to the top.

Ingredients:
For the Bread:
¾ cup granulated sugar
½ cup milk
½ cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
2 cups strawberries, diced
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
For the Glaze:
2 cups powdered sugar
2 Tbsp butter, melted
½ cup strawberries, diced
½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set aside. In a medium bowl, mix together the sugar, milk, oil, eggs, and vanilla. Add in the salt and baking powder. Slowly add in the flour while stirring just to combine. Toss the diced strawberries with 2 tablespoons of flour. Gently fold the flour-coated strawberries into the batter. Pour batter into greased loaf pan. Bake 50-55 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow bread to cool in pan for 10 minutes then remove to a wire rack to cool completely. To make the glaze, combine the powdered sugar, melted butter, diced strawberries and vanilla. Stir until fully combined and smooth. *See Note Drizzle glaze over bread when completely cool.

Notes:
– If your strawberries are juicy, the glaze should come together as written without any milk.
– However, if your glaze is too thick try adding 1-2 tablespoons of milk until it makes a glaze.
