Delicious Strawberry Bread Recipe
I love to make this strawberry bread when strawberries are in season. You will need to pick up the larger carton of fresh strawberries to have enough for this recipe. I have prepared this recipe in loaf pans and also in a Bundt pan and get great results either way.
For an added touch, serve the delicious strawberry bread with strawberry cream cheese which is available at the grocery store in the dairy section.
When strawberries are in season, I always pick up the big carton and make a batch of this bread. A great addition is strawberry cream cheese (shown in the photo). Spread on the bread for an added special touch.
