In the kitchen: Strawberry Bread

This fabulous recipe is from my friend Jill.

She is SUCH a good cook. And so funny. Always lots of laughs to be had with Jill around!!! I am sure I will probably share some other recipes Jill has shared with me on here!


Jill's Strawberry Bread

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
2 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
4 eggs, beaten
1 1/4 cup canola oil
2 1/2 cup strawberries, chopped (can use fresh or frozen. If using frozen, thaw and drain beforehand)

Mix flour, salt, sugar, cinnamon, and baking soda in large bowl. Make a well in centre. In a separate bowl, mix eggs canola oil and the strawberries.
Add into well in centre of flour mix. Combine but not overmix. Grease and sugar two loaf pans, coating the inside. Bake at 350 for 1 hr. (I always sprinkle tops of loaves with sugar before baking to make it crunchy)

I made this a couple weeks ago and I didn't have any strawberries, frozen or fresh. But I did have some of these freeze dried strawberries from Thrive.

And they worked really well. I ended up letting them sit in water first and then draining them. And I added more like 3 1/2 cups. But worked out so good! So if you have
Thrive products in your home try some of those in this bread!

Enjoy!!
