Recipe type: Dessert, Quick Bread
Serves: 16 slices
Ingredients
  • 1¾ cups (7½ ounces) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 tablespoons (1/2 ounce) strawberry powder (optional)
  • 1 cup (7 ounces) sugar
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest or ¼ teaspoon lemon oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1¼ cups (10 ounces) mashed strawberries, cooked rhubarb or any combination of the two
  • ½ cup (3½ ounces) vegetable oil
  • ½ cup (2 ounces chopped walnuts)
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour, or spray with non-stick spray a 9X5 loaf pan.
  2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, strawberry powder, if using, sugar, soda, salt and nutmeg. In a separate bowl, whisk together the lemon, eggs, strawberries and/or rhubarb, and vegetable oil. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, whisking until blended. Stir in the nuts.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, and bake for 50-60 minutes, until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool the bread in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove it from the pan and transfer to a rack to cool completely, 1 hour or longer. For best flavor and easiest slicing, wrap the bread while slightly warm and let it sit overnight.
