Chocolate-Strawberry Bread Mediterranean Style image

This bread also includes dates and pistachios, which is why I called it Mediterranean style. All the flavors are there and seem to compliment each other making a mild tasting bread.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped coarsely
1 1/4 cups sugar, divided
2 eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup pistachio nut, chopped finely
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup dates, chopped
1 ounce bittersweet chocolate, melted

Steps:

  • Add 1/8 C of the sugar to the strawberries and let stand while combining other ingredients.
  • Beat the remaining sugar, eggs, oil, and yogurt together.
  • Stir in the pistachio nuts - I ground mine almost to a powder in the food processor.
  • Sift together the flour, soda, salt and cinnamon and stir into the sugar mixture.
  • Stir in the vanilla, dates and the standing strawberries with any juice.
  • Lastly, stir in the melted chocolate.
  • Pour the mixture into a loaf pan sprayed with non-stick spray.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes.
