Recipe(tried): Strawberry Nut Bread

Strawberry Nut Bread

This is my favorite use for frozen strawberries. It's very good and different.

16 ounces frozen strawberries -- thawed & drained
4 large eggs
1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped walnuts -- optional

Greheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour an angel food cake pan (tube pan or bundt pan) 10x4-inches.

Slightly mash strawberries; set aside.

Mix sugar and oil in a large bowl. Stir in eggs until well blended. Stir in strawberries until well mixed. Stir in remaining ingredients except nuts until just moistened. Stir in nuts; pour into pan.

Bake 1 hour and 10 minutes or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes; remove to wire rack. Cool completely before slicing.

NOTES: This is a wonderful bread! Different and unusual and eaten up rather quickly.
