Lemon strawberry bread is so moist from the lemon juice and fresh chopped strawberries. It’s fresh, sweet, and tangy too. It’s so good made in the early summer with in season fruit from the farmer’s market. It has a crispy top crust, and a moist, tender crumb.

It would go great with lemon infused water or lemonade. It can be a snack, breakfast, or dessert. For more healthy citrus dessert ideas, check these out.

Quick bread is made with eggs and baking powder or baking soda rather than yeast. Sort of like muffins. You can bake it in muffin tins or loaf pans. Or even mini muffin tins. For more quick bread and muffin ideas, check these out:

Strawberry bread with frozen strawberries

You can easily use frozen strawberries for this recipe, just partially thaw them and chop them in small dices like you would the fresh ones. Don’t let them completely thaw before cooking. Frozen strawberries are usually packed in season so they can be sweet and just as delicious as fresh.
