Strawberry Bread Moist And Fluffy Wellplated Com

I’ve been baking Amish strawberry bread for more than a decade. Years ago, I took myself strawberry picking and upgraded to the largest carton, which holds well over 10 pounds. Between all the strawberry recipes there for the baking—Strawberry Oatmeal Bars, Strawberry Cake, Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp, classic Strawberry Crisp, Strawberry Scones…I could go on—the big box was a GREAT idea! While my strawberry mood changes from summer to summer (is this an Easy Strawberry Cake season or a Strawberry Smoothie season?) the one strawberry recipe I bake every single year is this healthy strawberry bread (as fall’s annual equivalent is Apple Bread). Between the juicy berries, the shiny glaze, and the wholesome batter, it’s just the kind of simple-yet-splendid breakfast I crave as the weather warms and the days grow long.

How to Make Strawberry Bread

I’ve tweaked this strawberry bread recipe over the years. Today’s version made with Greek yogurt, loads of fresh strawberries, and whole wheat flour is my favorite version yet. It tastes wonderful fresh from the oven, and the loaves freeze beautifully too. Bake a few while strawberries are at their peak, then stow them away for later months when you are craving a taste of summer.

The Ingredients

Strawberries. The sweet, red gems of this scrumptious bread. Their sweetness and juiciness are the stars of this recipe. White Whole Wheat Flour. Using white whole wheat flour is an easy way to boost this bread’s nutrition without impacting the overall taste or texture. The bread is still moist, and it has the added benefit of extra vitamins and fiber. Cinnamon. Adds coziness and warmth that pairs wonderfully with the strawberries. Sugar. For sweetness and moisture. Coconut Oil. Instead of butter, I used melted coconut oil in this recipe. It adds richness and subtle coconut flavor.

Nonfat Greek Yogurt. Ensures the bread is moist and tender (my healthy baking swap for sour cream). Eggs. A critical ingredient that helps the bread hold together and rise. Vanilla. Adds that beloved vanilla flavor and elevates all the other flavors in the bread. Vanilla Glaze. I highly recommend topping your bread with this sweet, vanilla-flavored glaze. It not only tastes delicious, but it also makes your bread look special and beautiful.

The Directions

Storage Tips

To Store. Store strawberry bread in an airtight storage container at room temperature for up to 3 days. To Freeze. Freeze bread in an airtight, freezer-safe storage container for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
