Strawberry Beer Bread with Fresh Basil image

Fresh basil perfectly complements strawberries in this sweet beer bread. It's delicious served alongside a pork or chicken dinner or toasted as a breakfast bread. I think it's best with a fruity beer, such as one with citrus or apple flavors, but you may use any favorite beer. You may also substitute lemon-lime soda for beer.

Number Of Ingredients 7

cooking spray
3 cups self-rising flour
¼ cup white sugar
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle fruity beer
1 ½ cups chopped strawberries
½ cup loosely packed chopped fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon coarse sugar, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • Stir flour and white sugar together in a large mixing bowl. Pour in beer and stir. Add strawberries and basil and stir until well combined; batter will be stiff and sticky. Scoop batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the top generously with coarse sugar.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.
