Fresh Strawberry Bread
2 cups strawberries, measured then finely chopped
2 cups strawberries, measured then pureed
1 1/4 cups unsweetened applesauce
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 1/8 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
Combine the chopped strawberries, pureed strawberries, applesauce and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Add the flour mixture to the strawberry mixture then mix until just combined. Divide the batter evenly between 2 sprayed 9x5 loaf pans. Bake at 350 for 40-50 minutes or until the top of the bread is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
This may be a silly question, but when you say 2 cups of finely diced strawberries and 2 cups puréed, is that measured before you dice or purée or is it 2 cups of strawberries after you dice/purée them? Does that make sense?
ReplyDeleteThe 2 cups is measured before the strawberries have been diced or pureed. I will change the recipe now to make it more clear. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
