Strawberries ‘n Cream Bread

Strawberries are a great price at Kroger. I remembered these cute little recipe books I had with fruit as the main subject. I decided to try this Strawberry Bread. This was easy to put together. The bread is moist and delicious. I decided to add a few things to the topping. The topping called for only cream cheese and a bit of the strawberry juice. I tasted it and thought, “meh, let’s see what I have in the pantry” Oils, extracts and flavorings are always something I like to turn to to add a bit of zing to a recipe. I tried the Banana vodka (1 Tbsp) and 1 Tbsp of powdered sugar. I used a mixer to get the icing to the correct consistency. Add this to the bread while it is warm so that it drizzles over the sides. I added chopped strawberries to the top of each slice. I used walnuts for the nutmeats in this recipe.

Banana-Spice Bars


This definitely screams fall with the first bite. The smells of the house are saying fall. This is a delicious, soft bar/bread.

22 minutes worked for me here in Indiana. To take these bars over the top in banana flavor, I added banana flavoring. This was very easy and quick to create this morning. The spices in this recipe definitely make this a fall treat.

Apple Apricot Loaf

This is very moist. You want to pay attention to the line that mentions leaving this sitting overnight as it is so moist, it can fall apart when first out of the oven.

This is from the apple orchard cookbook . I’ve enjoyed baking many recipes from this little book.

The next picture shows how much liquid I had from the apricots – the recipe says to make this equal to 2/3 cup by adding milk

there is a reason the line that reads: Loaf is easier to slice if it stand overnight. It should say: Important to let this stand overnight before slicing

the next picture is the Apple Blueberry Bread which I shared mid January on here
