Fresh Strawberry Bread

1. 1

   In a bowl, place the sliced strawberries. Sprinkle the slices with the 2 tablespoons of sugar. Place in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. This will create a nice syrup with the berries.

2. 2

   Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F.

3. 3

   Blend together the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl.

4. 4

   In a medium mixing bowl, combine the oil, vanilla, eggs, strawberry slices and its syrup. Dump the strawberry mixture into the flour mixture, and mix just until blended.

5. 5

   Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan (9 inches x 5 inches) and bake for approximately 50 minutes.

   HINTS: This bread is lovely with cream cheese. Egg substitute (like Egg Beaters) can be used instead of the eggs - just make sure you use the equivalent of 2 eggs. Chef Walter suggests variations of adding 1 1/2 cup chopped pecans or a bit of cinnamon to the batter, if you like.
