berry bread
Years ago I saw a recipe in the newspaper for a Strawberry Bread. I have made it several times over the years and have tweaked it so much it is mine now. I made it this time with strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, but I have made it with only strawberries and with only raspberries. It is great any way you make it, with any mix of berries. The original recipe called for the frozen berries in their juice. I haven't seen those little boxes of berries for years. This is better, with less sugar. I hope y'all enjoy!

How To Make berry bread
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9x5 loaf pans. In medium bowl, stir strawberries, eggs and oil. In large bowl sift or stir together the dry ingredients; add nuts. Stir liquids into dry ingredients until well blended. Pour into prepared pans. Bake for 1 hour or until done when tested with a toothpick.

Step 2NOTE: Don't substitute butter for the oil. I love the taste of butter, but the oil keeps this bread very moist. I cut 1/2 cup of oil from the original recipe.
