Strawberry Quick Bread
Nicole Van Hoey
After I picked over $60 worth of fresh strawberries, I had to find ways to use at least most of them (I could only fit so many in the freezer!). It's been so rainy this month, and I love a good cup of tea and a slice of quick bread, so strawberry quick bread was the natural result of my berry pallets. It took a few tries (and somehow we never ran out of berries!), but we finally nailed down a yummy recipe. Even better---it bakes in just 40 minutes.

Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Grease two loaf pans liberally.
In a large bowl, mix the sugar and oil.
In a smaller bowl, combine the arrowroot and applesauce, then add this to the larger bowl and stir.
Stir the strawberries with juice into the sugar mixture.
Add the baking soda, baking powder, and lemon juice, and whisk to combine evenly, without lumps.
Stir in the vanilla and cinnamon.
One cup at a time, add the flour and stir to incorporate into a smooth batter.
Pour or ladle the batter evenly into the two prepared loaf pans.
Bake for 40 minutes on the top or middle rack.
Remove to a wire rack and run a knife around the edges of each loaf.
Allow the loaves to cool for at least 10 minutes before turning them out to cool completely on the wire rack. - Serves: 20
