Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • ¼ Cup Powdered freeze-dried Strawberries
  • ¾ Cup Granulated Sugar
  • ½ Cup Buttermilk
  • ½ cup Milk
  • ½ Cup Vegetable Oil
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour (divided)
  • 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ Teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ¼ Teaspoon Salt
  • 1 Cup Fresh Strawberries (small dice)
  • 1 Cup Powdered Sugar
  • ¼ Cup Strawberries (finely diced)
  • 1-2 Tablespoon Milk

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350° and spray a 9x5 pan with pan spray.
  • Prepare the freeze-dried strawberries by using either a spice grinder or a blender to crush the strawberries into a powder. Measure out ¼ cup of the powder and save the rest for another recipe.
  • In a large bowl combine the powdered strawberries, sugar, buttermilk, milk, oil, egg, vanilla, all of the flour except 2 tablespoons, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix until almost completely combined.
  • In a small bowl, toss the diced strawberries with the reserved 2 tablespoons of flour. Add the floured strawberries into the batter and fold until combined and evenly distributed in the batter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared bread pan. Bake for 50-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
  • While the bread is cooling, make the glaze by combining the powdered sugar with the diced strawberries and 1 tablespoon of milk using a whisk. If The glaze is still too thick, add the second tablespoon of milk to thin it.
  • Once the bread is cooled, pour the glaze over top and enjoy!
