Happy Wednesday, friends!
Recently, I have had so many people tag me on Instagram sharing their version of this Strawberry Lemon Bread, so today, I thought I’d repost it with an easier to read and print recipe widget. This quick bread would be fantastic for Mother’s Day this weekend too! I haven’t made this particular bread g-free yet, so if you have or do, please let me know which flour you use. I’m always anxious to hear about gluten-free flours when baking.
Here’s hoping you have the best day!!

Description
This delicious quick bread has all the flavors of spring and summer in every bite! It’s the perfect sweet treat for Mother’s Day too!
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup of sugar
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup of chopped strawberries
- the juice and zest of one lemon (about 2 tablespoons of juice and 1 tablespoon of zest)
- 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Lightly spray one loaf pan with Pam. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat your eggs until light and frothy. Beat in your sugar and oil. Beat in your strawberries. Stir in your lemon juice and zest. Set aside.
- In a second mixing bowl, combine your flour, baking soda and salt and mix together with a fork.
- Slowly beat your flour mixture into your strawberry mixture. Beat until just combined.
- Pour batter into your prepared pan and bake 45 to 55 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf should come out clean when the bread is done.
- Allow the bread to cool at least 20 minutes before removing it from the pan and slicing it.

I’ve found most quick bread recipes, like banana bread or zucchini bread, Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 baking flour works great. I’m guessing it could be used in this recipe too!

Thank you so much, Beth!!!
Allison says
I made this yesterday. DELICIOUS! My strawberries fell to the bottom of the bread. Any tips? Still so good and my kiddos loved it!
Mix and Match Mama says
I don’t typically do this, but if you toss them in just a bit of flour, they won’t fall!
Julie P says
Same thing happened to me. The whole thing just sunk in the middle. I am at high altitude so maybe I needed to make a change to accolade that?
JInjer says
Regarding tossing the berries in some flour, I just read that you use some of the 1 1/4c flour you already measured out to make the bread. Don’t use EXTRA flour. If that makes sense.
Amanda Hill says
Pillsbury’s GF flour mix is my go-to. It’s less “gritty” to me.
Mix and Match Mama says
The gritt is what gets me!! Okay, buying that!
Renée Smith says
I made this bread this morning and used the Great Value version of the Pilsbury Gluten Free All Purpson flour blend and its delicious- way less gritty than almond flour.
Mix and Match Mama says
Yay!! Thank you so much!
Tara says
Could I use frozen strawberries or would they be too watery?
Mix and Match Mama says
For this recipe, I would use fresh but if you only have frozen, I would cut the amount in half. Enjoy!
Megan says
I made this using 1 cup of frozen strawberries (didn’t coat in extra flour) and it was delicious! I recommended it to several friends and family members. I will definitely be making it again! Thanks for the great recipe ?
Mix and Match Mama says
Yay!!!!! Thank you so much for letting me know!!

Hi,
I have been gluten free for 9 years and have tried all kinds of gf flours. King Arthur Measure for Measure Flour is the best! I can use a regular recipe and just sub in this flour. Most of the time, people can’t even tell it is gluten free! This flour is great for cakes, brownies, cookies, and quick breads but is not for yeasted bread recipes. Hope this helps!
Mix and Match Mama says
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Jillian says
The best gf flour mixture I have found is from America’s Test Kitchen. They have 2 How Can it Be Gluten Free cookbooks that are my go to! There is an easy gf flour mix recipe that I keep on hand for all my baking. Everything is delicious!
Mix and Match Mama says
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Hi shay I wanted to ask you if you buy your kids year books? I’m debating buying one for my 1st grader. She went to a private kindergarten where the yearbook was included. Do you buy your kids year books?
Mix and Match Mama says
We do buy them yearbooks!
Caroline Kohli says
I made this bread for my kiddos this morning and used Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 GF flour and it’s delicious!! My family loves your recipes!
Mix and Match Mama says
Awwww! Thank YOU so much!!
Kate says
I forgot the lemon at store!! Do you think this would taste good without the lemon juice?? Thanks!!
Mix and Match Mama says
Yes! It would be a strawberry bread instead!
