Ingredients

• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup milk
• 0.5 cup olive oil
• 1 piece large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups diced strawberries
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 0.33 cup finely diced strawberries
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 to 2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and grease a 9”x5” loaf pan.
2. In a medium bowl, stir together the sugar, milk, olive oil, egg, and vanilla extract.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined.
5. In a small bowl, toss together the diced strawberries and the 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour.
6. Fold the floured strawberries gently into the batter.
7. Pour the bread batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50-55 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center of the bread should come out clean. Allow the bread to cool for 10 minutes, then remove the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Make the glaze: combine the powdered sugar, melted butter, finely diced strawberries, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. If thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of heavy cream or milk to thin to desired consistency.
9. Once the bread is cool, spread the glaze on top of the bread. Slice and enjoy!
10. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
