Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Glazed Strawberry Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk ½ cup of melted unsalted butter and 2 large eggs until smooth, then stir in 1 cup of chopped strawberries and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined.
  5. Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Prepare the glaze by whisking together 1 cup of powdered sugar and enough milk to reach desired consistency, then drizzle over the cooled bread.
