Instructions

For the Bread:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Grease a 9"x5" bread pan and set it aside. You can add parchment paper, hanging on the sides, for easy bread removal.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, milk, oil, egg, vanilla, lemon juice, and zest.
  4. In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir with a spatula until just combined.
  6. In a small bowl, toss the strawberries and cornstarch. Fold them gently into the batter.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Level the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean or with just a few crumbs, no moist batter.
  9. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove it and place it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

For the Glaze:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the powdered sugar, melted butter, diced strawberries, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and fully combined.
  2. Once the bread is cool, pour the glaze on top of the bread and spread it evenly.
  3. Let the glaze set, slice, and serve.

Notes

  • DON’T OVERMIX or your loaf will turn out tough instead of tender. Just stir until the dry is moistened. A few tiny pockets of flour are fine.
  • Also, don’t skip tossing the fruit chunks in flour before folding them into the batter, or they’ll all end up at the bottom.
  • Feel free to make the icing as sweet or less sweet as you like.
  • If the glaze is too runny, add more powdered sugar and if the glaze is too thick, add a bit more liquid, 1 teaspoon at a time.
