Description

A slightly sweet bread made just a bit sweeter and more delectable by adding farm fresh strawberries. So moist too!

Ingredients

  • ½ cups Chopped Walnuts Or Pecans
  • ½ cups Unsalted Butter
  • ¾ cups White Granulated Sugar
  • 3 whole Large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • ½ cups Sour Cream Or Plain Yogurt
  • 1-½ cup Chopped Fresh Strawberries

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and place the oven rack in the middle position. Butter and flour (or spray with a non stick oil and flour spray) the bottom and sides of an 8-cup loaf pan (9 x 5 x 3 inch).

Place the walnuts (or pecans) on a baking sheet and bake for about 8 minutes or until brown and fragrant. Remove from oven and let cool completely before chopping coarsely.

In the bowl of your electric mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the butter until softened (about 1 minute). Add the sugar and continue to beat until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture (in three additions) and the sour cream (in two additions) alternately into the creamed mixture, starting and ending with the flour. Mix only until combined. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries and walnuts.

Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake about 1 hour, or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Place on a wire rack to cool and then remove the bread from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature. This bread can be frozen.

Makes 1 loaf.

Pretty good bread. A little on the dry side for my tastes, but has a nice fresh strawberry taste.

This was just what I was looking for! It rose up beautifully, tasted fabulous, and really let the flavor of the fresh strawberries shine.
