Strawberry and Yogurt Bread

Remember the Strawberry haul that I was talking about in my Strawberry Pancake post? I did few more things with those strawberries and I still have some left over which I have freezing in my refrigerator. Bread lover that I am, I naturally cant let a chance go by to make a loaf out of these berries now, would I? These turned out a.m.a.z.i.n.g. My better half is a strawberry lover while I go completely nuts over nuts. Between both of us (each picking at their favorites), the bread dint “live” to see another day!

Strawberry and Yogurt Bread

Its very simple and delicious with no hassle. The original recipe is from Taste of Home which I adapted to suit my pantry and preferences. This is perfect as a snack during tea time, a dessert with ice cream for dinner or as a elegant fruity breakfast! A Power packed nuts and fruits kind. Talk about being all purpose! Without further adieu lets go into the recipe shall we?

    I’ve made muffins with strawberries, so I know this has to be good. It definitely looks it.
    I guess strawberries are doing to you what mangoes were doing to me! :)

    you are bang on with that :) – DK

    I am not too much into baking and my daughter loves cakes. I am calling this one a cake ( to me anything sweet is a cake ). I would love to try this irresistible combo of Strawberries and Walnuts.

    The only sweetness that could possibly come from this bread is from the berries ( which usually are little tart in nature…) esp. if you use Demarara sugar…..We are not fans of sweet, hence most of my dishes unless otherwise mentioned arent that sweet….:)

    cake looks yummy.. does demerera sugar alter the appearance or taste of the cake? Where do you usually use it other than baking? Tks.

    Hey Pavani, From what I have seen, I personally feel that it does not alter the taste. I use it since it is less refined than plain sugar and anything which is not refined is good for us, isnt it :) . I use Demarara for morning tea/coffee other than baking. I also use it for my lassi. Hope this helps
