Strawberry season is here in North Carolina and my husband recently brought home a plethora of strawberries from a local farm.


I love using strawberries in salads, as a snack, in oatmeal, yogurt or cottage cheese but I have rarely baked with them. I came across a recipe for strawberry bread from Tastes of Lizzy T website and decided to give it a try. OH MY!! As my husband put it “it is the best recipe I have ever baked.”


The bread is moist, perfectly sweet and the glaze puts it over the top! I decided to slightly reduce the glaze recipe to cut back on some sugar and it was still delicious!
