strawberry bread recipe

Zucchini bread is cute and banana bread is charming, but strawberry bread just be the new queen of quickbreads.

‘Tis the season for strawberries and we love finding unexpected ways to work these vitamin C-rich gems into everything we eat (see what we mean?). Apparently, strawberry bread has become quite a trend on Pinterest lately. We thought we’d check out what all the fuss was about by testing variations and narrowing the strawberry bread trend down to a few reliable faves.

As with most baking recipes we find on Pinterest, a few backing hacks are required to turn these classic recipes into TCM-approved fare. Knowing a few simple swaps for traditional baking ingredients can turn an ordinary baked good into something allergy-friendly or more nutrient-dense.

Here are a few simple swaps to try:

+ Swap conventional flour for a gluten-free cup-for-cup all-purpose flour or organic sprouted wheat flour.
+ Use organic coconut sugar in place of some of the granulated sugar, or experiment with monk fruit sweetener.
+ Always make sure your baking powder is aluminum-free.
+ Use coconut oil in place of vegetable oil.
+ Use pasture-raised eggs when you can.
