Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup sourdough discard
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoon strawberry puree
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.

2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

3. In another bowl, mix the sourdough discard, eggs, melted butter (or oil), milk, and vanilla extract.

4. Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just combined. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.

5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a cooling rack.

7. For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, strawberry puree, and lemon juice until smooth.

8. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread and serve.

Notes

Choose fresh, juicy strawberries that are in season for the best flavor and texture.

If your strawberries are particularly tart, you may want to increase the sugar slightly. Conversely, if the batter seems too dry, add a bit more milk.

Be careful not to overmix the batter, which can lead to a tough, dense crumb. Also, make sure to bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
