Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour plus 1 tablespoon (divided)
- 1 ½ cups chopped fresh strawberries
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup whole milk
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
- Toss strawberries with 1 tablespoon of flour in a small bowl. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together remaining 2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk egg and sugar until well combined. Stir in milk, oil, and vanilla until smooth.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the floured strawberries.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Loosely cover with foil halfway through baking to prevent over-browning.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve.
