Spring is in full swing and that’s about the time strawberries show up more frequently on my shopping list. Iced Strawberry Bread is great to bake ahead and serve it up for a quick breakfast with a nice iced coffee. This time of year it’s warming up so we gravitate to iced over hot coffee.

Why Sour Cream:

Iced Strawberry Bread is made with sour cream which creates a great flavor and moisture to the bread. It’s crumbly and best to be serve with a fork on a plate rather than a slice of bread you would hold. The icing soaks in and adds the perfect sweetness to the bread. This is also how I make the banana bread because well sour cream is a secret treasure in bread.

The bread takes about 10 minutes to mix up and a little over an hour int he oven to bake. The recipe can be easily broke down into mini loaves if your looking to serve this up at a party or give as gifts. The icing can also be placed in small jello shot cups to be topped at a later time. Hope you enjoy this recipe with friends and family!
