When my family and I visited the local strawberry farm we ended up with lots of berries that we needed to put to good use. I have a bread recipe that I modified to make this fantastic little loaf.
Here is what you will need
1 cup strawberries, sliced
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
Take your strawberries and slice them. Sprinkle a little of your sugar over them and set aside. (I use an egg slicer and it makes this job lightning fast!)
Combine Flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt and baking soda.
Add eggs and oil and vanilla.
Fold in the strawberries.
Pour into a greased bread pan.
Sprinkle with sugar on top.
Bake on 350 for about 40 minutes. (Until a spaghetti noodle comes out clean……or a toothpick for you traditional folk.) Run a knife around the edges of the loaf to keep from sticking to the sides. Let sit for about five minutes and then turn it over onto a cooling rack.
ENJOY!!!!

Your strawberry bread looks so good!! I could easily eat the entire loaf by myself. (And not feel guilty at all!) I love your idea of slicing strawberries with an egg slicer; that would make the cuts more even than if I tried with a knife! It was also my favorite kitchen gadget as a child, so using it brings back fond memories…
