Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • ⅓ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup vegetable oil or canola oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp almond extract
  • 1 ½ cups diced fresh strawberries

Glaze:

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 Tbsp pureed strawberries
  • pinch of salt
  • ⅛ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp heavy cream
  • 2-3 drops almond extract optional

Instructions
 

  • Spray an 8x4" loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line the bottom with parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside about two tablespoons of the dry mixture.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, milk, sour cream, oil, eggs, vanilla, and almond extract.
  • Hull, wash, and dice the strawberries. Toss with the 2 tablespoons of dry mixture that you set aside.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir gently until barely combined.
  • Dump in the strawberry/flour mixture. Fold into the batter.
  • Spread the batter in the prepared pan. Bake at 325° for 65-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Let the bread cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • For glaze, whisk together all of the ingredients, adding enough cream until you get a thin glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the top of the cooled bread.

Notes

  • Make sure you bake your bread until it is golden brown and is completely set in the middle. The berries give off quite a lot of moisture, so if you under-bake your bread, it will become soggy the next day.
  • Leftover bread can be stored in an airtight container for 2-3 days at room temperature. It will last a little longer in the refrigerator.
