Strawberry Buttermilk Bread
Description
This quick bread recipe mixes diced strawberries into a base of buttermilk, egg, vegetable oil, sugar, and vanilla for moisture and flavor. The leavening is provided by baking powder, together with salt and all-purpose flour, creating a tender crumb. Baked in a loaf pan until a toothpick comes out clean, the bread develops a soft but firm structure. Once cooled, it is glazed with a milk and powdered sugar mixture that adds a sweet finish and slight sheen.
The strawberries provide fresh, juicy bursts of flavor throughout, balancing the bread’s sweetness. This bread serves well for any time of day when a fruity quick bread is desired and can be sliced for sharing or individual enjoyment.
Ingredients
- 2 cups strawberries diced, fresh
- 1 egg large
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
glaze
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar sifted
- 3 Tbsp milk note: you may need a little more or a little less
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray and line a standard 9x5 loaf pan with a sling of parchment paper for easy removal and glazing. Dicce your berries and set aside.
- In a large bowl whisk together the egg, buttermilk, oil, sugar, and vanilla until well combined and smooth.
- Whisk in the baking powder and salt, then fold in the flour. Combine well but don't over mix.
- Fold in the strawberries.
- Turn the batter into your prepared pan. Smooth out evenly, if necessary.
- Bake for about 55-60 minutes, or until firm when lightly touched on top, and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out without wet batter on it (wet crumbs are fine.)
- Let cool for 15 minutes in the pan, then use the parchment paper to remove the cake to a cooling rack to cool completely. Note: if you aren't using parchment paper, let the cake cool in the pan.
- Stir the sugar together with enough milk to make a thick glaze. Spread over the completely cooled loaf. Let the glaze harden before slicing.
