Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1-1 1/4 cups strawberries (about 1 lb, washed/chopped)
  • 1/3 cup egg whites (or 2 eggs or 1 mashed banana)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (to replace 1/2 cup oil)

Directions

  1. Mix dry ingredients in a bowl.

  2. In a separate bowl, beat eggs with applesauce and vanilla.

  3. Combine wet and dry ingredients. Carefully fold in the berries. The batter might seem a little thicker than what you’re used to, but it’s necessary to hold the bread and juicy berries together.

  4. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes in a greased loaf pan.

  5. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pan.
