Time 55m

Yield 1 loaf, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup strawberry, sliced
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup vegetable oil (or canola)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • In a bowl, place the sliced strawberries. Sprinkle the slices with the 2 tablespoons of sugar. Place in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. This will create a nice syrup with the berries.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Blend together the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the oil, vanilla, eggs, strawberry slices and its syrup. Dump the strawberry mixture into the flour mixture, and mix just until blended.
  • Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan (9 inches x 5 inches) and bake for approximately 50 minutes.
  • HINTS: This bread is lovely with cream cheese. Egg substitute (like Egg Beaters) can be used instead of the eggs - just make sure you use the equivalent of 2 eggs. Chef Walter suggests variations of adding 1 1/2 cup chopped pecans or a bit of cinnamon to the batter, if you like.
